My beach of the year and everything I started this project for - great walking, outstanding natural beauty and invigorating tranquility. Unbeatable 🏴

The stunning Coilleag a'Phrionnsa, or Prince's Beach, on the island of Eriskay. Linked by causeway to South Uist and by ferry to Barra, the island is a highlight of any tour of the Western Isles. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

A wintry view of the single track road east from remote Achiltibuie, north-west of Ullapool. The prominent peaky mountain is Stac Pollaidh whose character is out of all proportion to its mere 613m or 2,009ft in height. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

Such a treat to be on Lewis and Harris when snow storms pass through. A phone image until I get home. Since Sunday, we've had calm sunshine, rainbows, freezing wind, intense white snow clouds. Just perfect for an already photogenic island.

At York Merchant Adventurers' C14th timbered hall, the joy of craft has been caught in Medusa’s gaze – surging, soaring, uplifting. This place is not merely a building, but a glade within a forest – the medieval artisan’s woody memoranda embedded within the street. A must see.
