Beautiful sunset - as you say you get some great opportunities to capture them on Skye - some good opportunities for sunrise over the Cullins there too (if you are an early riser). We stayed in a wee cottage not far from here with wonderfull views over the lock to Dunvegan castle.

Ahh yes, skye is one of my favourite places. Unfortunatelt spent too much time on Elgol beach (as you can see in my gallery) to explore the northern part. The sky is beautiful, and I imagine you used a telephoto lens to acheive this great compression effect?

Thank you. Yes, I had a 70-300 telephoto at the time.

This was on the Isle of Skye. This sunset lasted for over an hour.

I increased the saturation a bit, but the original was prety good on its own. Skye is really far north, and the sunset lasted for more than an hour. We were driving here and there and this shot was 58 minutes after the first one I took about 10 miles away.
