The weather deteriorated today, if that was possible and the showers got heavier and the wind increased.

Kinlochewe -Torridon and Gairloch 2
The afternoon of our first day around Kinlochewe saw us move up to Gairloch and to Red Point overlooking the islands of Raasay and North Rona.

We had three nights at Kinlochewe and this diary extract from our first day there gives some sense of our mounting frustration with the weather.
Scotland 2011 – Sheil Bridge to Kinlochewe
This set of images takes us from Sheil Bridge to Kinlochewe. We briefly touched Skye on this journey crossing on the Kylerhea ferry. Again we had some appalling weather but it cleared for an hour at the very end of the day and Beinn Eighe slowly showed itself.
Scotland 2011- Nevis to Sheil Bridge
The next series of posts will all be about time we spent in Scotland during may of last year (2011) We had chosen to visit the high North West in May for a number of reasons.It’s generally reckoned to be midgeless, quiet, good for birds and wildlife and the most favourable time for weather that gives a clarity of light with fine visibility. On all those counts it never delivered. Birds were few and far between, in two weeks we didn’t see a single deer let alone anything else in the mammal line, the midges showed up earlier than usual and visibility was, on the whole, very poor! The Met Office weather summary for the time we were up in Scotland says it all.

Dinas and Llyn Brianne – Mid Wales
I spent last weekend working the area around Dinas, the RSPB reserve up in this part of the world. I parked up at Llyn Brianne and was out really early the following morning and caught some great light and mists that shrouded the landscape of this still wild area.

Brecon Beacons – The Quiet Way Up
Trefil and a Bit of Welsh History
A couple of weeks ago I went on a circular walk with a couple of friends around Trefil in the South Wales Valleys. It’s a walk that takes in so much variety and history in such a short distance, as well as providing some stunning panoramas over the Brecon Beacons.

Quick Tip 9: Identifying Images
When your out and about a lot with the camera, particularly on a trip of a couple of weeks, and continually taking images day after day it’s easy to forget where they were taken.
Summer Walk At Argoed
Heritage Coast Course
Once again the weather provided the main point of focus for this course as it had done so for the Brecon Beacons. This time it provided us with the full spectrum of a typically unsettled period.
