A few landscape photos from the West Highlands

A few shots of lightning striking during a rather impressive electrical storm over Glasgow

The final day of the first 2005 MacCookie Tour. We headed back down south, stopping at Slochd Summit to grad our shots of 67022 on the Caledonian Sleeper, 47703, 47709 and 47712 with the Blue Pullman and then 37417 with 6H03 Mossend to Lairg tanks. We then raced the Blue Pullman and managed to pass it at Blair Atholl which meant that we could get a final shot of it at Birnam & Dunkeld.

47712 (north end) and 47709 (south end) take the Blue Pullman up north. The original plan was to go to Wick and Thurso, but 47709 failed to start which meant a late start and ultimately the run out to Wick and back had to be cancelled.

47712 (west end) and 47709 (east end) take the Blue Pullman from Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh

The first day of the first MacCookie Tour 2006. Again we were heading up north, following the Blue Pullman up from Edinburgh to Kyle of Lochalsh and Thurso. Four locomotives were used for the weekend, 87006 up the ECML to Edinburgh and then various combinations of 47703, 47709 and 47712 from there.

A wee climb up Ben Narnain - no views of Ben Narnain it's self (see the walk up Ben Lomond for photos of the mountain) but a couple of shots of Ben Ime and The Cobbler.

A handful of photos of flowers taken at the Botanic Gardens in Glasgow

The highlights of two weeks travelling in Argentina and Chile, including 9 days in the Torres del Paine National Park and a visit to Los Glacares National Park (and Perito Moreno Glacier). A more full account of the trip can be found at http://patagonia.eatnet.org.uk. These are a small selection of my favourite photos and memories (only 1% of the total number of photos that I took!).
