Photography…mostly.

Hello there.

  • Harris Scotland

    North Harris Scotland is another slice of nice. Rainbows, rain and sunshine bring out so much definition in landscape photography. A bridge in the east links to Scalpay, an island of around 300 people that includes the lighthouse at Eilan Glas. More photography of that soon.    

  • Isle of Harris Scotland

Its Mediterranean position means it can reach baking temperatures in summer and snowy, wet and cold in…

  • High Catalan Numbers

    Above the village of Beuda towers a mountain. Sitting atop is a sanctuary, restaurant and library with stunning views of the Catalan countryside. Luckily I experienced nice puffy clouds and a fair sunset on this trip. Mare Déu del Mont’s altitude is up there in Catalan numbers, including the Pyrenees.  The area has many extinct volcano…
