  • Skye Photography Workshop May 26 - June 1, 2019 Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK
    Skye Photography Workshop May 26 - June 1, 2019 Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK Dear Friends and Colleagues, Over the years many of us have remained connected via common interests, including photography. Through my workshops, many of you have also experienced the rewards and challenges of photographing the landscape. Ten years ago, after falling in love with Scotland in 2008 and especially the Isle of Skye, Catherine and I were fortunate to take up part time residence on Skye. The island is a most amazing place! Ranked as one of the most beautiful locations in Scotland - perfect for star gazing and northern lights, rugged coastlines, constantly changing light and weather – Skye is really a photographer’s paradise. For a taste of what you will find on Skye, watch the YouTube video promoting the island as a movie location. click here To view some of my images made over the past few years, click here. In the spirit of past workshops, I will be conducting a photography workshop on Skye from May 26 – June 1, 2019 focusing solely on photographing the landscape. Photographers of all photographic skill level are welcome – no one has too little or too much experience to attend. I will provide photographic guidance during each outing, and evenings will be spent processing the day’s images using Adobe® Lightroom and reviewing your photographs. No worries about your Lightroom skill level either! Our “base of operations” will be the Hallaig Guest House, a modern bed and breakfast on northeastern Skye and owned by our good friends, Willy and Betty Campbell.

    Staffin Community Trust Church of Scotland Annexe Staffin Isle of Skye IV51 9JX Email: [email protected] TITLE: Brief for Interpretation and design tender Date: June 2018 1. Background & Context Situated is in the north-east of the Isle of Skye, in the Scottish Highlands, Staffin is renowned for its scenery and thousands of people from all over the world come to see its scenic landmarks which include the Quiraing, Old Man of Storr and Kilt Rock. Known as Taobh Sear in Gaelic, Staffin has a resident population of more than 500 people, who live in 23 different crofting townships dotted around Staffin Bay and the Trotternish Ridge. They have the good fortune to live in an area which has a range of top-tier heritage and environmental designations, possessing an international reputation for geology, palaeontology and cultural heritage. It is the purpose of this project to bring all these aspects of this community to life through the stories and experiences of the people of Staffin. The Skye Ecomuseum, also known as ‘Ceumannan,’ is a museum without walls. All the exhibits are located in its environment and require a short walk to uncover their images and stories. It was established in 2008 by the Staffin Community Trust (SCT). The Skye Ecomuseum became the first in Scotland and the UK, with funding from a variety of European and national sources, including the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), 10 years ago. With its other title, Ceumannan, ‘footsteps’ in Gaelic, the project is estimated to have helped attract thousands of extra visitors annually to Staffin and encouraged them to stay longer, boosting the local economy as a result.

    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES c.'^.cjy- U^';' D Cfi < 2 H O THE MISTY ISLE OF SKYE ITS SCENERY, ITS PEOPLE, ITS STORY BY J. A. MACCULLOCH EDINBURGH AND LONDON OLIPHANT ANDERSON & FERRIER 1905 Jerusalem, Athens, and Rome, I would see them before I die ! But I'd rather not see any one of the three, 'Plan be exiled for ever from Skye ! " Lovest thou mountains great, Peaks to the clouds that soar, Corrie and fell where eagles dwell, And cataracts dash evermore? Lovest thou green grassy glades. By the sunshine sweetly kist, Murmuring waves, and echoing caves? Then go to the Isle of Mist." Sheriff Nicolson. DA 15 To MACLEOD OF MACLEOD, C.M.G. Dear MacLeod, It is fitting that I should dedicate this book to you. You have been interested in its making and in its publica- tion, and how fiattering that is to an author s vanity / And what chief is there who is so beloved of his clansmen all over the world as you, or whose fiame is such a household word in dear old Skye as is yours ? A book about Skye should recognise these things, and so I inscribe your name on this page. Your Sincere Friend, THE A UTHOR. 8G54S7 EXILED FROM SKYE. The sun shines on the ocean, And the heavens are bhie and high, But the clouds hang- grey and lowering O'er the misty Isle of Skye. I hear the blue-bird singing, And the starling's mellow cry, But t4eve the peewit's screaming In the distant Isle of Skye.

  • An Unusual Small-Bodied Crocodyliform from the Middle
    Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, 107, 1–12, 2017 An unusual small-bodied crocodyliform from the Middle Jurassic of Scotland, UK, and potential evidence for an early diversification of advanced neosuchians Hongyu Yi1,2, Jonathan P.

Here we report a lower jaw from the Middle Jurassic (Bathonian) Duntulm Formation of the Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK, which consists of an isolated and incomplete left dentary and part of the splenial. Morphologically, the Skye specimen closely resembles the Cretaceous neosuchians Pachycheilosuchus and Pietraroiasuchus, in having a proportionally short mandibular symphysis, shallow dentary alveoli and inferred weakly heterodont dentition. It differs from other crocodyliforms in that the Meckelian canal is dorsoventrally expanded posterior to the mandibular symphysis and drastically constricted at the 7th alveolus.

    EILEAN A' CHEÒ : AN ENCHANTED ISLE. BY R. PARK YUNNIE. " Lovest thou mountains great, Peaks to the clouds that soar, Corrie and fell where eagles dwell, And cataracts rush evermore ? Lovest thou green grassy glades, By the sunshine sweetly kissed, Murmuring waves and echoing caves ? Then go to the Isle of Mist." SKYE begins when you leave Inverness, at least that is where the wild, exultant atmosphere of the West first enters into your blood, for then you leave the last outpost of modern civilisation on the winding road to the Isles. As you skim along the road beside lovely Loch Ness a strange excitement fills your mind, the blood runs more quickly in your veins, and you seem to hear the clash of claymores in the wind and the wild cries of the Jacobites. At Invermoriston you take the hill road over to Cluanie and down to Shiel Bridge, where you go to the left over the famous hill to Glenelg and Kyle Rhea Ferry. The road leads down to the edge of the sea, and before you, across the narrow strip of wind- tossed water, lie the beckoning hills of Skye. Here the winds blow fresh and clean and you can feel the sweet tang of the Isles. Eilean a' Cheò is within your grasp. No boat is moored to the rough stone pier. You sound the car horn, whistle, and excitedly wave white handkerchiefs to attract attention on the other side, but your only reward is Thethe soft murmu Cairngormr of the waves lapping on the shore anClubd the sighing voice of the wind.
