Last night, the sky, still bright despite the sun having set 40 minutes earlier, illuminated the west facing elevations of the village houses with soft dusk light that’s beginning to warm as we move into spring. #streetphotography #easterross #scottishhighlands

This was not the sunny day we were looking for...

Windy and mizzling, with a side order of squally showers this morning on the track from the Red Hut (now green).

After an hour or so I asked if she wanted to go back, yup she shot off back along the track. Mud was washed off with a wee swim in Loch Maree.

East of Achnasheen it was sunny. D'oh.

“The more time you spend here in the Highlands, the more you recognise and realise and come to feel yourself part of the different layers of the land [… people] see it as wild and untameable, when in actual fact it is very much a human landscape”

A few unedited photos of my village walk today. I wore my gloves as the air was cool, and that can trigger hand pain. But otherwise, it was sunny and not freezing, which is a pleasant change.
