Machair's edge

A myriad of inlets feed brackish lochs that run inland from the dunes all over the Hebrides and make for rich feeding grounds for birds and other wildlife.

Howmore hostel

On South Uist, one of the Gatliff Trust hostels was the setting for our second night's stay on the islands. Situated close to the machair, this well-equipped hostel offers plenty of bunks for travellers and great camping ground nearby for those who prefer to stay closer to the elements.

Hebridean Dawn

I'm going to add this landscape to my prints on watercolour paper. The long dawn light in this picture, the collection of ruins and its atmosphere is quintessentially Hebridean.
