The Old Man

The Old Man
A distant Old Man of Storr and the eastern end of the Isle of Skye's Trotternish Ridge from captured from the western side,

Standing at 55 metres high, the ‘old man’ component of the name derives from the fact that when seen from the front, the rocky pinnacle and The Storr behind it create the face of a haggard and craggy old man.

Trotternish is the northernmost peninsula of the Island and the ridge extends for the majority of its length 30 kilometres (20 miles) It also contains other major features such as the and Kilt Rock!

HFF and a nice weekend,,,,,, Large for details!

Beautiful. I've only ever seen the Old Man from the eastern side. I wonder what happened to the sample of amygdaloidal basalt that I collected there in 1971???

Hi Roger
I like this nice picture, very much!
The colours and composition are really interesting.
We visited here this summer, but (probably no surprise) it was rainy and too foggy to see anything, so this is a nice shot of what we missed! Thank you for sharing.
Best Wishes, (slightly late) HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Interesante la información que aporta tu link. Sabía que Escocía tenía islas pero no tantas. Casi un millar. Ha de ser un área bonita para la pesca, embarcación caña o submarina.
