After the great weather of yesterday<\/a>, today was a little dull in comparison, however that wasn’t all too bad as I needed a day inside to rest, getting around on Skye requires a lot of concentration and time. Elgol to Neist Point is over a three hour round trip and on roads that require full attention. Don’t get me wrong I love driving and riding here on Skye. Check out previous visits on my Motorbike in 2008<\/a> and 2009<\/a>, and while I’m on that subject, the Alps tours on Motorbike from 2009 and 2010 were simply amazing<\/a>. No it’s not the driving that’s a problem it’s the inability to concentrate for long enough to remain safe. So today was another rest day in the house with a short visit to Elgol Beach at the end of the day, only for sanities sake.<\/p>\n

Here’s what today revealed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The cuillin and Loch Scavaig covered in Cloud.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Elgol below the clouds and R\u00f9m almost covered too. The bungalow\u00a0directly below\u00a0is for sale. What a place to live this would be.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Note the Cow in the Bottom right of the image as the day clears out a little.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Down at Elgol Jetty with the view over the Beach towards the Black Cuillin over Lock Scavaig.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The beach is made up of large pebbles which can be tough to walk across. There are some nice stones to be found along here.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A natural bowl of Pebbles.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tiny Green snails cling to the rocks here.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A\u00a0range of colours<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A broken Pebble.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As the day draws to a close, the sun makes a very brief appearance before dipping below the Horizon.<\/p>\n

You can see a collection of my Framed Isle of Skye Landscape Photography Prints available for purchase here.<\/a><\/p>\n
