To get this photograph of Ullapool on the north-west coast of Scotland, I went to Braes, a small suburb of Ullapool which stretches up the hill overlooking Loch Broom, driving up the steep winding road to it's end, and parked the car there.
It's not too long a walk from there over the hill to this viewpoint. Ullapool is the largest town in the North-west Highlands, a major tourist centre, the port for Ro-Ro ferries to and from Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis, and has regular bus connections to Inverness.
Before I came to live in the highlands this would be my first stop after leaving Glasgow when on holiday, heading to the Captain's Cabin on Shore Street for sustenance before the final two hour leg of the journey to my favourite holiday destination, Gleann Leireag in Assynt, Sutherland.
