What better place to go and take in some of the finest scenery in Scotland as a treat for my far better half on her birthday? My being a keen hillwalker and crap photographer when I get the chance had nothing to do with the choice of location either…
The end result was not only a head full of fond memories, but included one or two visits to places I had passed many times but hadn’t ventured out with a camera to.
We truly live in God’s country – Alba gu bràth.
For the lovely Jools
At Glenfinnan, framed amid typically spectacular Highland scenery at the head of Loch Shiel with sweeping glens as a backdrop, stands this poignant monument to the final Jacobite Rising.
The lone kilted highlander atop the 18m high column surveys the land, where the Highland way of life was soon to be cruelly extinguished. Go along, take in the view and prepared to be stirred.
