On the way back from Neist Point Lighthouse which had like 50 ft visibility, so no photo, found this discovery
Here is one of my favourite photography spots on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. The nearby Neist Point Lighthouse, was designed by David Stevenson, and first lit on 1st November 1909. An aerial cableway is used to take supplies to the lighthouse and cottages.
