A new JWST deep field.

All the eight-sided features are local stars in the Milky Way.

Everything else is a galaxy.

Rocks and raking sunlight on the way out to Stac Pollaidh are probably enough to explain why i took this. I do enjoy the wisp of cloud that makes the hill a chimney though. #LandscapePhotography #StacPollaidh #Highlands

A pollag is a puddle. This is a pollag in a rock at a beach on an island with another island, Tarasaigh on the horizon. #LandscapePhotography #IsleOfHarris #Bilingual

Tail end of Storm Bert going over us today. It's a sunshine and blustery showers kind of day.

You might not be able to afford an island, but for a small fee you can become the owner of a drawing of one!

How about that! I'd have been about 3 so this probably is in a trough of the ragged edge of memory right enough!
ET was showing in April/May 1983, according to an old Gazette 😊

I think i remember remembering seeing ET here. But i can't remember if i really do remember that or not.
Stornoway Gazette advert and article about the Galaxy Cinema opening in Sep 1981.
Don’t recall anything about the movie but I’m guessing Superman probably won in the end. Look at the comfy seats!!!!

Chanain nach eil Hearach ann a tha measail air dealbhan a thogail nach do sheas, uair neo uaireigin, air a' chladach an Àird Àsaig le sùil air a' Chliseam.
I reckon every Hearach photographer has stood on the shore in Ardhasaig with an eye on the Clisham. #LandscapePhotography #IsleOfHarris

Tarbat Ness lighthouse was always one of my favourite photo locations. Endless shapes and colours and the sky is nearly always dramatic. I'll get back to the cat photos when she's bored of the snow. #LandscapePhotography #Lighthouse #Scotland

Years and years ago i stopped at a layby on the Inverness to Ullapool road and made what is probably still my favourite picture. It just caught a mood. #Photography #LandscapePhotography #Scotland

Going back through my landscape photos..this one is from Loch Glascarnoch around 10 years ago. #LandscapePhotography #LochGlascarnoch
