Really missed the party on Skye

Time to share my first Quiraing series. I hope they're different enough from the nice series Fred and Domien posted but it was so nice there that I couldn't restrain myself in the selection what to show here

Quiraing part 1

p61: Lots of water coming down from the mountain



p62: The only other person we saw on "the other side" of the Quiraing towards Bioda Buidhe, a Fuji 6x9 film photographer.



p63: Looking back at the other side from about where the photographer in P62 was standing



p64: The hill of Cleat



p65: Another look at the ridge and the road to the car park



p66: A wider view with the sea beteen Skye en Scotland mainland in the background



p67: A view towards Staffin


All A7ii + Tamron 28-200 Di III RXD

Thanks Mestari, glad you're enjoying our trip, and b.t.w. I'm also enjoying your 2011 NZ photo series a lot as well.


The Quiraing part 2

p68: Slowly walking up and enjoying the view forward



p69: Impressive rock formations



p70: Looking forward towards the top of Bioda Buidhe



p71: Looking over the ridge at the highest point



p72: The light hitting the other side again



p73: Impressive rock formations there as well



p74: Goodbye Quiraing, looking back to the top we visited on this fantastic walk

On P57: I like the 'face' looking over the ocean. I totally missed that view.
The Quiraing shots are beautiful. I already said I took too many shots there.
But it was such a great sight.
We were blessed with great light all day, but it culminated there.

F45 F48 P63 P67 really show the details of this amazing landscape

And P74 shows our walk-up well, It took us over an hour (one way)

The next day we had one shower. It lasted all day.
Luckily we were able to shoot between heavy rains and drizzle.

We started in Portree, where we stayed. The Portree port, though colorful isn't very appealing during showers. But hey, we were there for photos.

D41 Portree side 1


D42 Portree side 2


D43 busy Portree port


D44 Rain on the lens


D45 Probably fish farm fishing boat


D46 polystyrene-eating crow


D46 Remains of defense works

The rain makes the colours look very "fresh" Domien, there's no bad weather for photography, only insufficient protection of your equipment, but we were well prepared


Let me finish day 1 with our drive to Idrigil/Uig


p75: Beautiful light play behind the pier



p76: Fred and Domien in action



p77: Rain in the distance is always better than rain where you're standing



p78: The pier of Uig (which is actually in Idrigil)



p79: Apparently a royal visit in these far away places is worthy of a memorial


All A7ii + Tamron 28-200 Di III RXD

This concludes our day 1 on the island, my day 2+ shots will have to wait until I'm back from my next trip the last week of oktober. But I'm sure Domien and Fred will keep you entertained with all the eye candy we saw the following days.

p75 yes, but let's not forget about p77!

D44 is also worth mentioning for me :) Those droplets are unfortunate but what can you do with such weather... at least it saturates the images for free ;)

Great series Pieter! I had a similar problem: choosing from so many nice pictures to post. Enjoy your next trip!
