Old Man of Storr, HFF

Old Man of Storr, HFF
Managed to sneak a bit of fence in the bottom corner so hope it qualifies, The Storr is prime example of the Trotternish landslip, the longest such feature in Great Britain. It is the type locality for the mineral gyrolite, (Wikipedia)

Viewing large would be appreciated,
