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

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.
