An Amazing View!

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , , — quact @ 8:28 pm

Inverness, the Capital City of the Highlands of Scotland. A few years ago, the fastest growing city in Europe. Pop ~ 70,000.
It attracts a lot of loaded Londoners and Edinburgers who are retiring and selling up their one bedroom flats for half a million pounds, which up here will get them a 3 bed house with a phenomenal view over the Moray Firth, with a 10 minute drive taking you to the centre of Inverness. Similarly, a 10 minute drive from the centre of Inverness and you are in the middle of the countryside. Loch Ness, a popular tourist destination due to the resident monster and the fabulous Urquhart Castle on its north-west side, is similarly a 5 minute drive out the other side of Inverness from the centre.

An absolutely phenomenal view which we get every time we come back home to Inverness, as we take a back road in which is the more direct route to our home on this side of Inverness. Will need to capture this one time I’m home with a proper Digital SLR and a tripod, with the sun high in the sky rather than low here (5pm Feb 08) which sadly means I can’t show any of the open space to the left of this panorama.
