Description Another very popular spot for photographers on the Isle of Skye, managed to get there for the first time last Autumn. I knew that evening rather than morning would be better as this was west facing. having got there mid afternoon it gave me plenty of time to get a viewpoint i liked then it was just a case of waiting for the right conditions.

Thanks, have looked at your website and you have some creative wildlife shots considering they're taken in a zoo, hope you get to go on safari soon..

me too!!

I'm waiting for someone to invent money tree seeds so I can grow my own

Actually, a photographer I've been speaking to wants an assistant for his Kenya trips next year so hopefully, fingers crossed, he will take me.

I don't mind working in zoos, sometimes its harsh though.

Do you do any wildlife work?

No not at all, i did try many years ago but its not for me. Keep in contact with the guy going to Kenya so he doesn't forget you! Being an assistant would be perfect and a foot in the door to greater things hopefully, your website must stand you in with a chance and the fact you work with the animals.

Good luck!

Yeah thanks! I can't wait to actually finish university and start to really get into it. It's so exciting. I just need to get over my fear of creepy crawlies.

haha yeah that reminds me of *Blepharopsis 's work as well, if anything I think it makes them seem more scary to me.. i don't know what it is, I just can't stand any insect being near me..

Really nice shot! I love the way the Cuillin is lurking in the background with the wild weather in the foreground. It really captures the wild nature of Skye.
