A Scottish stone spire
Ancient Scottish stone spire, possibly the thumb of a giant or formed from extinct volcanic complex, now known as the Old Man of Storr.

"when we were blown to the summit,
slivers of silver in a sea of stone
all that this land had taught us
became unheard of, unbeknown."

What the Old Man of Storr looked like the last time I saw him ( he probably had a cold 🤷♂️ )

This is the highest I got in my hike. Such a magical place. People in the lower right corner for scale.

Can light make all the difference? It sure can. I love how the clouds made all the difference in the photo. Still at the old man of Storr.

Visited one of the most iconic landmarks on Skye recently - the Old Man of Storr!
Definitely one of the most rewarding hikes I've completed recently and well worth a visit.

A spire of stone, shrouded in cloud.
A lone figure, still silent beneath it.
The Old Man of Storr watches on, as he has for centuries.
We are here, briefly. He remains.

The Old Man of Storr, Isle of Skye, Scotland
#Landscape #Photography #Isleofskye #Scotland #oldmanofstorr #AerialPhotography #Drone #DJI
A dramatic, myth-laden landscape on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, viewed from a moss-covered rocky slope near the legendary Old Man of Storr. In the foreground, ancient boulders draped in green lichen and tufts of wild grass overlook a winding trail that glistens with rain, carving a silver line through vast moorland. The scene stretches toward dark lochs and distant mountains beneath a tempestuous sky. Breaks in the thick clouds allow shafts of golden sunlight to stream down, spotlighting the rugged terrain below. This ethereal atmosphere echoes the island’s deep roots in Gaelic folklore — the Storr itself is said to be the thumb of a fallen giant buried beneath the earth. Local tales speak of faeries hiding in the glens, selkies transforming from seal to human under moonlight, and ghostly hounds roaming the hills. The landscape feels timeless, sacred, and enchanted — as if the land itself remembers every story ever whispered to the wind.
"Is bòidhchead gun fhìrinn mar ròs gun bholadh.”
(Beauty without truth is like a rose without scent.)
