We had departed Lochinver, Scotland, heading south down the coast along “The Wee Mad Road,” and we emerged at a high point overlooking The Summer Isles (see my Panoramic gallery) and father down to Anna Bay and Little Loch Broom.
Continuing on the road southeast, we stopped for lunch at The Achilitibuie Piping School Cafe, a delightful cafe in the site of the old piping school, complete with walls full of photos of past classes.
We kept going until the road basically ended above Culnacraig, home to a small fish hatchery, and a few whitewashed houses. The afternoon clouds were rolling in over the far hills, creating a beautiful play of shadows and light across the blue-tinged peaks. Out came the camera, and the scene was captured before we ventured back towards Lochinver, albeit not along “The Wee Mad Road” this time, instead venturing to the areas out along the main roads, which enabled us to circle back in from the east to Lochinver.
