Scenes from our first group visit to Eilean Donan – Kyle of Lochalsh, Scotland.
The third photograph is of a Rowan tree. The Rowan Tree Symbolism and Meaning in Celtic Mythology is fascinating.
The biggest surprise, and a life bird, was a fly by in the location of the last photograph by a White Tailed Eagle. I saw many cormorants and oyster catchers.
It was raining a little but there was almost no wind which made the reflection perfect. A few of our photography group are in the last image.
The photography group stayed at an old inn, The Royal Hotel in Portree offering Sea View Accommodation with Bar and Restaurant in Portree on The Isle of Skye. Our room was at the top and there was no elevator. We had a lovely view.
The street where the charming West Highland Museum is on and a couple of local boats in Loch Linnhe.
A lovely Scottish church by Loch Leven, Scotland.
Some church and hut doors for Dan’s Thursday Doors: https://nofacilities.com/2026/06/04/iowa-doors-2/
Scenes of the church at dawn. In the first 5 photographs I used some AI to put in grass or a path over concrete.
The lovely St. John’s Scottish Episcopalian Church is by Loch Leven in Ballachulish, Scotland. It is a deeply Scottish Church whose history is interwoven with the whole story of Christianity in Scotland – back to the Celtic Saints like Ninian and Columba and through the Scottish Reformation and all the turbulence which followed. Pictures of the church to follow.
We came to photograph the dawn light.
A lovely evening photoshoot of Castle Stalker – Wikipedia on Loch Laich in Apin, Scotland. Our little photography group is in the first picture. Marc likes photographing walls. The rim light on the sheep is special.
