Hebridean colour and grey seas

My first visit to the Western Isles for the Harris Tweed project.
Only a very brief stay this time but just enough time to stop on the half hour drive on the single track road from east coast to west. Miles and miles of peat bog in glorious autumn colours and the mountains of Harris to the south waiting to be explored another time.

A reported force 8 gale for the ferry back to the mainland was.... interesting!

Hi Sam... that looks totally scary for sure. I've been on them frries when visited lewis and harris (why doi they talk about them as if they were 2 separate isles? Asked but no-one gave me a clear answer. Loved the ley lines up there. Hope you and your mum are well and warm up there. Gianni
