  • Rosettes and sheep competition mementoes adorn the wall and mantlepiece of champion breeder Vic Bull's crofting bungalow home overlooking Loch Bay, Waternish, Isle of Skye Scotland. Afternoon sunlight pours through a front window into his living room which serves as a shrine to the Sheep. Having already refused a half million Pounds for his house and spectacular view high up on a hill, he prefers to breed his beloved Blackface sheep which he shows only twice a year at local competitions in the Dunvegan area and the prizes and awards are proof of his success. Vic now lives alone rearing his livestock with four sheepdogs for training and company. Image taken for the 'UK at Home' book project published 2008..

  • A bright window light shines across the still Loch Bay from Lochbay Boathouse, a remote house at Stein, Waternish Point on the Isle of Skye. Lochbay Boathouse is a unique seaside house. It sits on the shore of Lochbay, on the Waternish peninsula, a few miles from Dunvegan, in the north-west of Skye. Built in the early 19th Century with thick walls of local stone, it was originally the boathouse for the Waternish Estate. In the early 1970's it was converted into a house by the singer Donovan and now combines modern comfort with the character of an unmistakably old building.

  • Lone fishing boat makes its way through Loch Na Keal, Isle of Mull, Scotland. The main fishing on the Ross of Mull, Ulva Ferry and Tobermory is now is commercial shell fishing with baited traps(creels) for lobsters (homarus gamarus), edible brown crabs( cancer pagurus), Prawn (Norwegian Lobster) and velvet swimming crab (necora puber). Scallop dredgers and Prawn trawlers also operate from both ends of the island, dragging the seabed for their catch. Before the late 1960s shell fishing with creels was generally carried out on a seasonal or part time basis allied to crofting, farming or another shore based job. Small boats today still operate this way. Loch na Keal National Scenic Area (NSA) embraces the coastline on the West of Mull, from Gribun cliffs to Ulva and Loch Tuath and also includes Inchkenneth, Staffa and the Treshnish Isles. NSAs are designated by Scottish Natural Heritage as areas of outstanding natural beauty. There's a road around the entire shore of Loch na Keal, so you can easily see it all.

  • The beautiful landscape of Loch Garry (Scottish Gaelic: Loch Garadhin) Glengarry is seen as a late sun sinks below the mountains of the Scottish Highlands, near Invergarry. In  the foreground we see the foliage of trees of Glengarry Forest that hug the Loch (Lake) and the Western hills in the far distance are near Loch Quoich. Glinting off the near-still fresh water's surface, the pools of shadow and highlights of the sun reflect like a mirror while approaching rain clouds lie across the top on the image like a blanket of bad weather coming soon to this peaceful and unspoilt place. Glengarry is one of Scotland's famous landmarks.

  • Disused sign and pier stones near Old Ferry House, now a remote self-catering house at Grasspoint, Loch Don, Isle of Mull, Scotland. Until 1881 a regular packet boat operated between Oban and Grass Point. This was replaced that year by a daily steamer service from Oban to Tobermory. Until that time, cattle from Rum and Eigg were transported by boat to Croig on Mull's north coast, and then driven across the island to Grass Point, on their way to the mainland. Parts of the old drover's route are still visible. The old stone quay is no longer used, except by occasional leisure craft. Grass Point means 'the field of the rock' in Gaelic.

  • The last light of day fades on the still waters of Sgeir Nam Biast, a bay overlooking Waternish Headland, near Dunvegan, north-west Isle of Skye, Scottish Highlands. A solitary light bulb glows from an upstairs room in this isolated cottage across the calm lake. The weather is perfect but unusual for one of the wildest parts of Britain. Farming practices have changed irreversably in a generation and many residents have English accents rather than that of native Scots islanders as city dwellers from the far south seek an alternative to urban lifestyles. The weather can have adverse effects on those unprepared for such wild conditions, especially during harsh winters when violent storms batter these Atlantic coasts. But old crofts have been converted to bed and breakfast homes, catering for tourist visitors who adore this form of idyllic escapism....

  • First world war memorial to those killed in the parish of Kinlochspelve, Isle of Mull, Scotland. Kinlochspelve Parish Church, a little way off the road to your left. This was built in 1828 to a standard "Parliamentary" design produced by Thomas Telford. Nearby is the parish war memorial. As you look west along Loch Uisg from here, two things catch your eye. The first is the splendid Craig Ben Lodge, on the north side of the loch. (http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/22381/details/mull+kinlochspelve+church/)...Kinlochspelvie Church has only recently been available to let from Friday to Friday.

  • Front entrance doorway of Old Ferry House, now a remote self-catering house at Grasspoint, Loch Don, Isle of Mull, Scotland. Iron piles lean against a dry stone wall at the rear of Old Ferry House, now a remote self-catering house at Grasspoint, Loch Don, Isle of Mull, Scotland. Until 1881 a regular packet boat operated between Oban and Grass Point. This was replaced that year by a daily steamer service from Oban to Tobermory. Until that time, cattle from Rum and Eigg were transported by boat to Croig on Mull's north coast, and then driven across the island to Grass Point, on their way to the mainland. Parts of the old drover's route are still visible. The old stone quay is no longer used, except by occasional leisure craft. Grass Point means 'the field of the rock' in Gaelic...(http://www.isleofmullcottages.com/old_ferry_house.htm)

  • St Ernan's church, Fionnphort, Isle of Mull, Scotland. During the 1890s it was decided by the church on Iona that a Mission Chapel should be built at Creich in the Ross of Mull and dedicated to St Erana.  Ernan, formerly Prince of Donegal, was uncle to St Columba and one of a group of twelve followers who came with Columba to Iona to set up and manage the Iona Monastery. Through the efforts of the then parish minister, the Rev. Archibald MacMillan (his gravestone is in the church yard), money was raised to build the church.   Plans of the church were approved by Presbytery in 1897 and a site chosen to benefit the community.   It lies a mile outside Fionnphort, beside the A847 which connects with Bunessan and Craignure and above Loch Poit-na-h-I. http://www.mull-historical-society.co.uk/places-of-worship/bunessan/creich-church.htm

  • A lone walker passes by a partially-collapsed broken sign announcing the summit of Rannoch Moor, Scotland UK, 1,350 feet above sea level. He is hunched against a driving wind at this altitude and the country he is walking over is bleak and boggy, a wetland high up in the Scottish Highlands. Thick tufts of grass and moss lie about in this tough terrain, held in great affection for long-distance hikers. Rannoch Moor is a large expanse of around 50 square miles (130 km²) of boggy moorland to the west of Loch Rannoch, in Perth and Kinross and Lochaber, Highland, partly northern Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Rannoch Moor is designated a National Heritage site.

  • Leaning against the side wall of the eighteenth-century Stein Inn in the tiny Loch-side hamlet of Stein, Waternish, on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, a road-racing bicycle stands beneath a prominent three-letter sign saying 'Inn'. The image is in shadow and therefore monotone, with little colour except for the faint blue that is seen above from a fading sky. The wall is painted white and the word in block capitals is in black. The image is clean and simple without confusing elements or messages. The Inn itself is the oldest on Skye and is one of renowned travel writer's Alastair Sawday's special places to stay and which boasts 99 Malt Whiskies behind the counter.
