Wow, what a beautiful shot. Everything is "right" in the frame (light, sky, clouds, rocks).

Hi BAB,

Yes the best times to be here on the IoS for photography, is any time from the middle of October through to the beginning of March, no tourists or camper vans on the island by then (or anybody else really) and no midges or flying bitey things.

Best times for autumn colour is the last week in Oct and the first in Nov - Glen Coe area best for colour at the end of Oct, IoS best for colour at the beginning of Nov.

I would also advise that when you come here, that after touring the Island, that you also book yourself and your vehicle onto the ferry from Uig at the North of the IoS and then take a few days on the Outer Hebrides and also head towards the standing stones on Lewis etc.

I like the light on the stones.

Thanks, and I am so glad you noticed these little touches, as I shot this scene to specifically show the warm light casting across the pebbles and rocks in the foreground at a low angle.

Wow, what a beautiful shot. Everything is "right" in the frame (light, sky, clouds, rocks).

Well what can I say Francios, with praise like that, I am speechless...

Nice catch.

Thanks Eric.

In fact thanks everyone who took the time to comment, it is much appreciated  ;)

Love the highlights on the rocks and that is what really makes the image IMO.

Thank you Rayyan, always good to get a Bravo from a fellow Lula forum member ;)

Love the highlights on the rocks and that is what really makes the image IMO.

..and thank you Matt and yes I agree, the rocky, pebbly foreshore, was a little bit messy and uninteresting when I first arrived at the scene, until that shallow angled light started to add some real sparkle into the shot.

Thanks again everyone  :)
