The past 6 months have without question, had a huge mental strain and drain on my/our and I am sure a lot of peoples ability to make sense of all the continuous changes that have taken place in all aspects of life, so It was with great favour that we took a well-deserved timeout to visit our favourite part of the UK, the West Coat and Inner Hebrides of Scotland, hope you enjoy a snap shot of the beauty that we find every time we visit.

You have really captured the beauty of Scotland. My wife and I are spending a fortnight there soon as it is also our favourite place to holiday. Glad you took the time to unwind and take a break.

Great set. Absolutely beautiful.
Eilean Donan Castle was used in the film "Highlander".

I can't do camping and tents anymore but my wife and I would visit Eilean Donan Castle (and Edinburgh for that matter) in a heartbeat.

Wonderful images.
We try to do the west coast, north of Loch Lomond to just beyond the Kyle every other year.
I don't think there is much to match the photographic potential for landscapes elsewhere within the UK.
Slightly inbound to Rannoch is stunning too.

Wonderful images, weโ€™re currently on our annual Skye trip, behaving safely and sensibly. Much more important this year than any before, for mine and especially my partners mental health, itโ€™s her first time away from the NHS front line in 12 months!

Dont let the Covid19 page warriors see this...youโ€™ll be shot at dawn!

I like the peaceful scene of the Cal Mac leaving Uig, last time I was there it was blowing a gale !
