Bench in the shade of Trumpan Church, Waternish Peninsula, Skye, Scotland In 1578 the MacDonalds of Uist arrived by boats, under cover of the fog and locked the congregation of MacLeods in the church, setting fire to the roof. All but one perished. The alarm was raised and the MacLeods killed all the invaders in the Battle of the Spoling Dyke. It is said they were able to exact revenge on the MacDonalds when they unfurled and waved the MacLeod Fairy Flag. There are several legends regarding the origin of the flag, one of which was that it was a gift to an infant child of a MacLeod Chieftan, and yet another was that it was given to a MacLeod chieftain by his fairy lover when she had to return home. Another suggests it was a gift from Titania, the wife of Oberon the fairy king. It was said that once the flag had been unfurled three times the magic, the flag and the holder of the flag would disappear forever. sobt.co.uk/trumpan-church Here is a song called 'Faerie Queen' by Blackmore's Night www.youtube.com/watch?v=inath9I4xc0

This photographer had an excellent vantage point and camera set up waiting for the best light. He must had been wearing wellies as my feet were already sodden from walking across the wet, marshy ground. I decided to stay put and snap the snapper for added interest!

I have linked this with Jack Johnson's 'Pictures of People Taking Pictures' www.youtube.com/watch?v=Otid526FHqE I couldn't resist adding a second link, - a bit tongue in cheek but when I look at this shot I am always going to be reminded of my cold wet feet!
