Loch Duich from the North Shore looking south-east towards "The Five Sisters of Kintail," and Glen Shiel under winter snow and nearing sunset, Wester Ross, Scotland.

            Commentary.

Graceful.
Elegant.
Pyramidal peaks,
sweeping,
curving down
razor-sharp arêtes to cols
and shorelines 3,500 feet below.
The Five Sisters of Kintail give
Loch Duich a smooth, flowing, fluid beauty
and majesty in all seasons.
But in winter these glorious, snow-covered, “wintrified” slopes
take on a splendour that is breath-taking and exquisite.
This is a truly exceptional landscape
on the West Coast of Scotland.
