I made a trip to the Western Isles last week. As sunset is after 10pm I made the ffort at the end of the working day to get into the Harris hills and take some shots. The sun had shone unencumbered all day but as I began to walk up some cloud started to develop over the mountains.

Not to be put off I kept going and after a walk up to my vantage point (approx 2,000ft up) it was a matter of waiting for the sun to clear the clouds. Unfortunately the wind was easterly and just blew the clouds in the direction of the setting sun. This shot was the only one where this mountain received any light. Not a classic but I cannot think of a better place to be on the island at that time. Certainly not the hotel bar!
