Kyleakin Lighthouse and the Island of Skye from the Skye Bridge, Kyle of Lochalsh.

            Commentary.

Nearing 19:00, in high summer.
Sun still high in the Skye gleams off the Inner Sound.
Rounded “Red Cuillin,” Beinn na Caillich, 732 metres (2,402 feet)
rises majestically above Broadford Bay.
Right of it, the “Black Cuillin,” form a serrated knife-edge of volcanic ridges culminating in Sgùrr Alasdair, 992 metres (3,258 feet,) right of centre, on the far horizon, twenty-one miles distant.
The flat island is Pabay and rising beyond it, to the far right, is the much hillier, Island of Scalpay.
A shimmering image on a glittering coast.
The incomparable West Coast of Scotland.
