Scottish Day Trip

Back in December I was charged with the unenviable task of getting myself from Leeds to the Scottish Highlands for a work site visit. I had 36 hours to get myself to Inverness, rent a car and proceed to drive 60 miles north into the middle of nowhere to carry out a landscape appraisal. Then get back.

My journey began at 5:30am when I left my flat to catch a train to Manchester Airport. By 12:15 I was in Inverness, and by 14:00 I was lost!

I did enjoy it though. It had been years since I'd been this far north in Scotland and the scenery was breathtaking. I didn't have much time to stop, but I did have my camera with me.

Oh, and it was very, very cold.

By the end of the day I was completely exhausted and it was back to Inverness to get some kip before catching the ealy morning flight back to Manchester and then on to work. Not before a little drink though!

You managed to give an airport runway some sort of emotional value. The shot of the house in the field is striking. Excellent work!

Very nice photography.

I agree with ALL above comments, but what strikes me more is in spite of your hectic trip, you were able to take the time to shoot these fine photos and then plan the making of the Tabblo in you head while you were so stressed out on making your deadlines. I salute your great efforts and fine Tabblo!

I kept saying "this one is the best," then I'd move to the next one, "no, this one" .... they are all so wonderful! what a place to get lost.

Great story/tabblo. I am curious about the mountains in the background of the first shot. Are these the Cairngorms?

I am enjoying the re-visit thanks to Umauma. These are awesome photos and take me back to my childhood - you see, I was born and raised in Scotland.
