The many shades of Scotland - Isle of Skye & Eilean Donan

in #photography7 years ago

The Isle of Skye is one of Scotland's most visited islands. It is best known for its rugged landscapes, quaint fishing villages and striking coastlines. It is this impressive scenery that has helped it to become a film makers paradise with many recent Hollywood blockbusters being filmed there, from Stardust to Snow White and the Huntsman.

During the filming of Stardust Michelle Pfeiffer and Robert De Niro had some lunch in the local bistro, it was a very surreal moment seeing them sat there having afternoon tea, sadly I didn't have my camera on me to take a wee celebrity snap.

All images where taken with my Nikon D40X.
