A view from the beach at Elgol towards the Cuillin Hills on Skye. Shortly before this was taken my wife and I sat in the car (waiting for the rain to stop!) and watched as school children left the tiny primary school built close to the edge of the beach. I'd love to know what recollections those children have of their education in such an extraordinary place.

Chris, Graham and Ollie - thank you all so much. Of course, Ollie - many thanks for that. I'm sorry you had problems with the email...strange things have been happening since I changed the website name to flindtphotography.com. And if it's ok by you, I'd like to reciprocate. Best wishes. Ian

Ian, this is a very nice achievement. Awesome wide angle crop, and beautifully composed. I finally see what the home of the Talisker looks like. Obviously 5 from me. Cheers, Chris

Many thanks, Ward, Erin and Ray. That's a great shame, Ray. Skye is a beautiful place. Any chance you'll be able to capture a few images while you're in the Balkans? Best wishes. Ian

Top notch shot Ian, great perspective and composition. I am envious as I was supposed to be going to Sky this Spring for a few days photography but looks like I will be away in the Balklans! Great 5 from me...Ray

Another stunning shot with so much atmosphere. Those hills are 'spooky' and I love the angle you've shot them from. Certainly looks like an extraordinary place.
