Skye is not only naturally magnificent in terms of scenery,\u00a0there are also interesting subjects to photograph that move too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I’ve been watching a Buzzard around the house for a few days now and on this occasion I managed to photograph this fine bird, along with a pleasant surprise.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A rain shower passes the Black Cuillin.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gars-Bheinn in the cloud.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A fine looking Buzzard.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gars-Bheinn with interesting clouds blowing off the ridge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gars-Bheinn. Beautiful.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gars-Bheinn towering above Loch Scavaig.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then out of nowhere appears…..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A magnificent Sea Eagle. The largest bird in the UK I believe. What an amazing animal. Look at the size compared to the Buzzard.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Not my sharpest image, not being prepared and hand holding my camera at 400mm hasn’t helped. Higher ISO and a faster shutter speed may have resulted in a sharper image. Nonetheless a beautiful White Tailed Sea Eagle. What a treat it was to see such a fine bird.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meanwhile in the other direction.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I headed down to the Beach later i the day as the conditions looked promising for the last hour of the day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This was great. The Black Cuillin over Loch Scavaig and fantastic warm afternoon light. Perfect.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ideas on a theme of composition with the dynamic element of the Tide coming in. Something I don’t get to experience in the Lake District.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Probably my favourite evening in Elgol this year and certainly one I am proud of. this trip has given a rich variety of weather to experiment and create Landscape Images form this beautiful place.<\/p>\n

\n

I’ve put together a collection of my favourite Landscape Photographs from the Isle of Skye<\/a> which you can see here, framed prints and stretched canvas prints are available to purchase online.<\/p>\n
