Under the Bridge to Skye

15 Mar 2021 10:26PM   Views : 539 Unique : 427

When we reach Kyle of Lochalsh in Scotland, we reach the point where the Skye bridge takes us across to the magical Isle of Skye. The area around and under the bridge is actually rich with photographic opportunities, be it views from the bridge, views under the bridge or views of the area just on the island. This includes the gorgeous harbour at Kyleakin and the mysterious Castle Moil. As a taster for this, for we will go back one day, here are a selection of images using the Pentax K20D, a 14.6MP DSLR that is outdated now, but was still very capable of shooting excellent images.
