We’ve had some beautiful sunrises over the last few weeks.
This morning as the sun rose slowly behind the mountains on the Knoydart Peninsula it sent a shaft of sunlight through the valley towards Loch Nevis, like an orange searchlight.
The morning was blustery, with strong winds building steadily. We’ve had storm warnings of up to 80mph winds for the west of the island, and listening to the wind roaring around the house, I can believe it.
Time to secure the bins and tie down anything loose before it takes off.
I remember watching the cover on my rotary washing line wrestle itself free of its bindings and fly off triumphantly in a storm last year. It’s probably in Norway by now.

What gorgeous photos! The storm season is upon you, and us too. I really don’t like thunder and lightning, strong winds are a close second, but I do love the fertility that follows the destruction of storms. Nature seems to show a new lease on life after storms. New growth in the trees, seedlings everywhere and green rather than brown. I wish you a fertile ‘after storm’ season.

Thank you! We have a few months more to go, but it’s powerful and primal and I love it, despite the destruction. It reminds us to respect nature and its power

It does indeed! Hopefully the damage to clothes lines will be minimal.
