After breakfast we went out on the Golden Road which runs along the eastern coat of Harris. We stopped for some lovely reflections in a calm lochan and then for architectural reeds in some moorland ponds.

On the Saturday morning we crept out of our comfy warm beds at the Harris Hotel for a dawn escapade to Seilebost Beach. As always driven by our patient mentors, Lizzie Shepherd and Alex Hare. The morning was very overcast, but rather than a lovely pink sunrise, it just got lighter. There had been a strange lenticular cloud hanging over the mountains of North Harris all week and it was very evident this morning.

On the third day of the workshop we made a foray into Lewis to photograph the rock arch at  Rubha na Beirghe and spend sunset at the megalithic Callanish Stones. In between we went to  Dalmore Beach and Callanish II which lies a little way away from Callanish I, the main site, above  Loch Ceann Hulabhaig. Again there was little cloud in the sky.  I took a Lensbaby to make some more interesting pictures of the arch and stones, as well as the straight ones.

We spent a glorious afternoon on the beach at Seilebost where I tried, without a great deal of success, to photograph something a little more individual. And then it was back to Traigh Rosamol for a glorious blue dusk.
