Storm across The Little Minch, which is a sea channel of the Atlantic Ocean between here at Hungladder on the Isle of Skye and the middle islands of the Outer Hebrides sometimes called the Western Isles, This is an area prone to storms and is a busy shipping lane; 2.5 million tonnes of shipping pass through the channel each month. HFF and good weekend,,,,,,,, the usual recommendation to view large if you are able please,

Colours not enhanced, A fishing boat hurries through the weather to home port as a storm in the Minch, passes over Hungladder, Trotternish, Isle of Skye, The Minch is a strait in north-west Scotland that separates the mainland from Lewis and Harris in the Outer Hebrides. Captured in 16.9 format therefor a large view would be appreciated! HFF!

A brief gap in the evening cloud cover allowed the sun a chance to shine across The Minch. A large view may reveal the Outer Hebrides behind the sun rays. Wish you all a good week

The Minch is a 70 mile Atlantic Ocean sea channel that separates the Outer Hebrides from the Isle of Skye and the mainland and is protected by seven lighthouses. it is criss- crossed by a number of ferries which often face weather related disruption. A small part of the islands in the far distance is illuminated by a shaft of light from the evening sun and to the far left of the image is Skye's Waternish Point, beyond which can be seen through the mist one of the Shiant Islands (as indicated by a note) Recommend a large view.

With no money to import materials the crofters of the island used whatever materials were available to build a home, stones that were nearby, driftwood for roof timbers often provided by the many shipwrecks and rushes for the roof covering, walls were around three feet thick and windows kept to a minimum with a peat fire for light and heat. The distant island to right of the image is Fladda-Chuin, A submarine grounded on the island in 2002 and caused damage to the hull that cost an estimated £5 million pounds to repair. Stay safe but have a HFF A large view if you are able please
