The Skye Bridge from Plock of Kyle

This natural public park area lets you take your car to a splendid viewpoint. Here we are on the top, after a further short walk, with views across to Skye and north to the Applecross Peninsular. Across from us is the Skye village of Kyleakin , another hot spot for bridge photos and the old Skye ferry harbour. The water is Lochalsh itself and we see the Skye viaduct to the bridge too. A very cloudy day with spots of rain and we were to come here again with no better luck with the weather. The PiP shows the bridge from the lower shore viewpoint on the Plock.

Yes the light was good on the water and I did wait for the boat to be in the right position too. The things we do to get a picture! Glad you liked it.

I love your composition here Herb.........there's a lovely curving leading line from the road bottom left which curves over the viaduct and the bridge all the way to Skye. Just perfect!

Glorious light too.........especially where it's reflected on the water surface and I also love the beautiful yellow of the gorse in the foreground.

Very, very well captured. I like both PiPs too!
