A barbie doll lying on rough grass. She is wearing white strappy sandals and white knickers. Her upper half is obscured by her yellow and blue flowered skirts. She stands on a plinth that has a word written on it in cursive, possibly Jamaica.
It is extremely windy today, therefore this is a common occurrence in the Hebrides. I tried to rescue her but was almost blown away and struggled back to the car. #Uist #NorthUist
Slow carved Lewisian Gneiss Vessel with a deeply tooled diamond ground finish. Over 3 billion years in the making. Carved in the Outer Hebrides.
Isn’t Lewisian Gneiss amazing!

A view across Loch Euphort on North Uist in the Western Isles. The image shows the view on a sunny day, with a sculpture of what looks like a branch of a tree on a rock in the foreground. There is a stony area around the sculpture with a path leading to it. In the background is the loch, complete with islets. In the distance a rocky hill rises from the far shore.
A view across Loch Euphort on the enchanting island of North Uist in the Western Isles. North Uist measures some 18 miles from east to west by 12 miles from north to south, and has a remarkably complex topography. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...
