Love the foreground rocks, Scotty. I see that a lot on beach shots in Scotland. Are those smooth, round rocks a common thing on beaches there? While they wouldn't be too comfortable to walk across in bare feet, I'm sure it would be an interesting hun for some really unique patterns on the rocks.

If I were you, I'd certainly make plans for another trip up there. A setting sun with a dramatic sky would look amazing with that scene.

Oh yeah, your horizon is slightly slanted. :-P

Great shot Scottie, love the foreground interest, leads the eye nicely towards the point of interest and that sky is very dramatic.:D

Just wonderful. The contrast of the rounded pebbles and the jagged castle/cliff is brilliant.
