A quick stop along the Wee Mad Road on the way back to Lochinver...intense light on the birches, showing them off to their magnificent best.

This beautiful tree with its wonderful lichens, stood out across the River Inver....so I made it stand out a little more.

Monochrome photo of two old rowing boats, that lay on the foreshore, decaying away.
A couple of rowing boats, presumably used for fishing years ago, sit upon the foreshore slowly decaying. #assynt #scotland #highlands
A croft in Assynt. One half with a Red door, has had recent renovation and the 2nd half with a green door is looking rather worn and in need of some tlc.
A tale of two halves. One must presume that the other half will recieve some TLC in tge future, though I like the rustic look. #Scotland #highlands #Assynt #croft
A small river flowing into its estuary at Achnahaird Bay. Lots of lovely reds,yellows, greens and blues hues.

Four hands holding wooden spoons in to a circle.
3/3 The wood at the base of each spoon bowl is 50 years older than the wood around the rim. Amazing!
The rest of the elm will be put to other good uses locally. One piece will be burnt as the yule log at Lochinver Lights Festival in February, postponed from early January due to snowβοΈ

The village of Drumbeg. The image shows a view from above of a road leading away from the photographer past a scatter of buildings with lower ground to the right and high ground rising to the left behind the buildings. There's part of a larger mountain visible above the main skyline on the left. The scene is in sunshine.
The village of Drumbeg, on the stunningly beautiful and single track Assynt coastal road from Lochinver to Kylesku in western Sutherland. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

Oh yeah - I also got a halfway tolerable view of Split Rock in Clachtoll while I was there. Knew there was something else... :)

Split Rock collapsed natural arch from Clachtoll Beach - bit of a clichΓ© subject but had to be ticked-off. Awesome low winter light from the sun setting in the west just clipping the spray in the shadows, too.

It wouldn't be a holiday to Assynt without some serious rockery. Here we have the Moine Thrust exposure by Loch Glencoul and Loch Eileanach surrounded by wonderful Scourian gneiss and amphibolite dykes.

Tuesday's trip around Assynt involved the Wailing Widows waterfall (Eas Chranaidh)... I've been here several times but never managed the droneybird perspective on it before :)
