Standing on the edge


I'm not too keen on standing on the edge of sheer drops. Perhaps it's an age thing. My daughter's Projects group didn't seem to have a problem with it in the Cuillin range on Skye.

  1. That looks like incredible scenery - nice shots. I don't like getting right up to the edge of a drop, but I can for a photograph!

  3. Standing beside a huge drop scares me too, but my Sweetheart is fine with it so we sometimes have issues when we go hiking!

  7. Hi Linda,
    Iv'e been lucky enough to walk and climb most mountain ranges, but the Cuillin Range was never one of them, and always one that I longed to visit...maybe soon now that you've reminded me of it's moonscape beauty. Amazing pictures, an experience your daughter will never forget I am sure. Thanks

  9. Randy, we don't often call something 'awesome' here, but I agree, it IS an awesome view.

    Al, not even for a photo would I get near the edge!

    Linda, we'll huddle together at a safe distance, shall we?

    Karine, going hiking with someone is a true test of a relationship.

    Farmchick, my daughter still talks about her experience in these two weeks. It's been one of the highlights of her school career.

    Andrea, the Coast series is very well done. I saw the Caledonian canal programme a few weeks ago. This week's one was about Scottish islands - Benbecula, Shetland - lovely!

    Sara, I have a feeling that they weren't perched RIGHT on the edge. But it certainly made a good shot.

    Jenni, 'wow' is what I said when I first saw this shot.

    Gary, you seem so well placed where you are in England for 'continental' holidays that it must seem like a bit of a trek to get up here.

    Jenny, I prefer my hills without these sharp edges off which one can drop!

    Happyone, glad you liked it!

  10. Hi Linda,

    I'm a bit late on the uptake (as so often), but wanted to say: WOW! and ooh and aah, and no you wouldn't catch me that close to the edge either! What are the islands we see in the top photo, do you know? Canna / Rum / Eigg?

  11. Wonderful shots. I didn't realize that your country had such high mountains and ravines.
