HFF from the Old Man (pip)

HFF from the Old Man (pip)
Another gallery image from the Isle of Skye as just the tip of the Old Man Of Storr can be seen in this view from below the Trotternish Ridge, whilst the pip shows it from the normal viewing direction.
Legend says this 55m high stone is the thumb of a giant who was buried below the ridge,

A large view would be appreciated.

I love this lush green landscape Roger................beautifully composed and taken.

We managed to get half a day up on the Quiraing a few years back, but the weather was atrocious (even for Skye in Feb), so we had to retreat back to the digs). I only got a few photos.

Sorry I missed this one..............a much belated HFF. I hope you've had a good weekend.
