A Glorious Sunny Day at Duirinish

These were all taken yesterday during a lovely walk from the Goirsdean at Drumbuie, up the hill to Creag na Cat (The Crag of the Wildcat) sadly no wildcats but great view to the Cuillins on Skye, and back down through Duirinish Village.  The flat striated rock exposure on one of the tops was almost flat but heavily scoured by glaciation presumably and about 3 m x 5 m in size, surrounded by wet moorland vegetation and heather, very unusual to see but I thought made a good image with the Cuillins in the background.  The sun was really warm for the first time in ages but there was a bitter east wind when I got to the top of the crags.  Some of these photos might end up being used in my Higher Photography project or at least as development for a more planned visit/photo shoot later in the spring.
