Loch Hope, Sutherland, Scotland

THE STORY BEHIND THE PHOTOGRAPH

Loch Hope is I suppose technically an inland loch; the River Hope runs out of Loch Eriboll, east of Durness, and then widens into a loch, which itself then narrows and gives way to Glen Hope, with the Strathmore River running down the centre of the glen. I was on my way south, past Loch Hope, to the ruined broch of Dun Dornaigil, when I passed this wonderful view. I've never been able to pass up 'just one more photo', and here's another example!
