	Ardnamurchan 1024 x 768 156K	The Ardnamurchan peninsula is the westernmost part of mainland Britain. It is considerably more peaceful than England's West Country. From Salen, take the B8007, a narrow single-track road with passing places.
	Loch Ailort 2 1073 x 768 202K	One of countless sea lochs on Scotland's Atlantic coast. Blue skies, rugged rocks, sheltered waters, and brown seaweed on the shore. A crab's eye view through a wide angle lens.
	Loch Ailort 3 1024 x 768 226K	Continuing the theme, but with the lens facing the light. The stones in the foreground are adorned with barnacles, seen here about life size on a 17 inch monitor. The tiny tidal islands have ancient stunted trees.
	Loch Ailort 6 1024 x 768 240K	Looking across the loch to the Ardnish peninsula. The sunlight throws the bumpy hillsides into sharp relief.
	Loch Ailort 8 1024 x 768 230K	Grass and seaweed grow side by side here at the tidal fringes. This is a close-up view of the rocks as seen two pictures above. The geological strata reveals an S-shaped fold.
	Beinn Ghobhlach 1024 x 768 71K	West of Ullapool, at the other side of Loch Broom from Rhue lighthouse. The land is causing the moisture-laden air to rise up and its water vapour condenses into a cloud which stretches eastwards before evaporating again.
	Rhue lighthouse 1024 x 768 112K	Guiding sailors into Loch Broom and Ullapool from Stornoway and further afield. Low clouds obscure the tops of Coigach.
	Arisaig to Eigg 576 x 768 92K	On the Morar peninsula which is split by Loch Morar running east-west along its length. Mallaig is at the end of the railway line and the ferry across the Sound of Sleat to Skye. Arisaig is at the western end of South Morar and is much more tranquil. This is a view down the ramp at the end of Arisaig's causeway, with the island of Eigg visible on the horizon.
