The Prison
The imposing feature known as The Prison at the Quiraing, Isle of Skye.
The last time I was here, the mist was very thick, so I wanted to return when visibility was better - 'unfortunately' this occasion was on a sunny day with only the smallest amount of high cloud so not the best for moody landscape photography. But on this day, we got on top of The Prison, about half-way in between the two 'horns' and did a complete circuit for the first time. This was done as a three-shot panorama on the way back and I managed to get the low sun in behind The Prison, much better in monochrome than colour. A figure on the top would have given good scale, but there was no one about.
