I have long been intrigued by this peninsula with the crown shaped top on the Isle of Skye. It juts out into Loch Harport and I had previously tried to find a satisfying way of photographing it, usually from the slopes of the nearby Boust Hill. I was never happy with the results and on this occasion I had wandered down into the little village of Struanmore for the first time.
It was late in the day by the time I reached there and the light was dropping quickly, soon the sun and last remnants off light would be gone and I felt that I was probably going to fail again to capture this peninsula.
I got out of the car and looked down Loch Harport to be delighted with the view of the peninsula and the backdrop of the Cuillin mountains. I only had time for a few shots before the last glimmers of light faded and the scene fell into complete gloom.
