Sunlight on the Water

Sunlight on the Water
Sky Bridge from Kyleakin, Isle of Skye. The bridge which crosses Loch Alsh is 500 meters long and was opened as a toll road in 1995 but following many years of protest the tolls were removed at the end of 2004,
The Eilean Ban lighthouse under the bridge was designed by David and Thomas Stevenson and built in 1857 to a height of 21 meters it was decommissioned on the opening of the bridge.

Thank you Joan your comments are really appreciated, I guess the bridge certainly changed the island for ever, probably improved the economics of the place.
