Thank you David, it was one of those which I really wasn't sure what I had until I processed it, the moon was so strong and in the frame.  I cropped it out and it didn't seem too bad.

I am very grateful for all the thanks, but really there is no need - all the participants worked hard to make Scotland 2019 a success, so my thanks go to them, too. The weather was good, tho' hazy, and with some of Scotland's best landscapes within easy reach - Kintail ltself, Glenelg, Skye, Applecross and Torridon - and these factors were also impostant for the success of the get-together.

A last few images -
1. and 2.  Glen Shiel, early morning
3.  Chimping, Glen Coriusk,Skye
4.  Orchid, Coruisk
5.  Rowan, Skye
6.  Ruin, Glenelg7
7.  The Trotternish Fault
David you managed to get the haze out ;)
Nice pictures and thanks for a nice week, I have agree with the others.

Beautiful colours and composition, Dave, especially #1 - my favourite here, although #7 comes very close.

The cloud picture, as a mini Rorshach test, reminds me of a swimming tortoise... Lovely!

Remembering the 2016 NG meeting thread, I immediately went to look at this one, I have been to Scotland only once (and in winter, for some serious icefall climbing in the Cairngorms), now the places look so beautiful in other seasons that I have the urge to come back and visit more accurately!

Amazing photos!

Ciao from Massimo

Thank you Dave - that's quite a compliment, coming from you.

BTW: I don't know if you were aware of this, but there is a very strong Ozzie cultural presence here in Edinburgh:  :P

Francis, Bruno and me went walking towards the southermost point of the Isle of Skye. This it how it looks there (sorry, had to reduce from 25.000 to 5000 Pixel wide):

Robert, that is a beautiful star trail shot!

Mike, you seem to have been truly inspired!

Frank, is that a sweep panorama image using your smartphone?  The image is stunning!
