This is one of my favourite viewpoints, Achtercairn Hill in the village of Gairloch, looking over Loch Gairloch and out to the Isle of Skye lying of the Scottish west coast.
This typifies the drama that can result from changing weather conditions in the West Highlands. In this case heavy cloud coming from the south eventually blotting out a fine day. The transition however was wonderful to watch as I photographed the sunbeams flickering in and out over the Isle of Skye.
People return again and again to the North-west Highlands to enjoy such spectacular lighting displays amongst magnificent scenery.
