Isle of Skye Trip

Some images from a recent 3 day trip to Skye. Of all the recent good weather we picked probably the worst 3 days to go, had rain solid on day 2 and 30-40mph winds on day 3. Managed to get my M2P up on a few occasions, but the Mini2 never came out of it’s bag.

The A82 road on Loch Lomondside - Mavic 2 Pro - 1/120sec @ f7.1, 100iso.

I particularly like the third one with the ring fort. I’ve also got a feeling I recognise the Glencoe image, not sure why? :grin: :grin:

Cheers Colin :+1: It’s a great location. You will find lots of ‘No Drone Zone’ signs all over the castle car park, but there are lots of spots along the shoreline to take off from.
