All are nice photos and it looks like an interesting place to hang out. I like the one with the old, abandoned fishing boat the best.

I enjoyed those escapees Birma. It's a shame about the fishing boat, they can sink by accident, all it takes is a leak in the cooling system, and then it's a massive task to re-float them, looks like that one might be a bit far gone now I think...left too long.

When Birma posts, he's a waterfall of gems! :D

A very ressourceful location for sure, Birma. I like all the shots as well as our forum members already mentioned. The abandoned fishing boat does add a bit of interesting mystery quality and the melancholy attached is warming to the heart.

I like the untouched wilderness of the location as your photos generously showcase.

Thanks for sharing,

Thanks Yildiz - the Isle of Skye is a gold mine for photographers (when the weather cooperates), it is always a wrench to leave.

What the hell man!
You go away for a few days and look what you miss. Birma, these are spectacular. You were really in the zone for these. I can only imagine pressing the button in front of such beauty. You got to do it.
Congratulations.

Really enjoyed all of these photos Birma. The boat also stands out for me, I think fixing that up would be tough job even for Greg. A metal hull would have faired better than wood when it crashed against the rocks, housing shifted quite a bit off centre. You took a great photo there Birma. Thanks for sharing all.
