Festive season

The weather was quite good during the festive season and so we were able to take a walk most of the days.

we spent a lovely afternoon on Uig Sands watching the magnificent Uig hills changing colours and reflecting in the sea

At Geshader we found walking along the shore an old trunk of a tree rotting away.

On a sunny afternoon we sat above Glen Valtos looking down to the Miavaig

It was mostly mild but turned colder towards the end of the week so on the 4th of January the Hills were covered with snow and even the mossy ground rather firm with some frost.

... and a rainbow across the sea

Reflections

winter time, time for reflections

Waves

An afternoon walk to Cliff beach fascinated by the waves‘endless advance and retreat. A group of oyster-catchers close by the water was watching as well but fly away as soon as I approached too close.

Back in Lewis

Back in Lewis for a winter break
for long walks on lonely beaches, where the luminosity of a soft light glitters up the rolling waves.

Farewell

The ferns and other plants are turning rusty brown and summer seems to come to an end.It is time for me once more to say FAREWELL.
