Scans of old medium format slides that I pulled out of "the archives" (a box) the other day. These are all Mamiya C330f with 80mm lens, Velvia 50, taken around 1995.

These two are I think Leverburgh harbour on Harris. Those colours can only be Velvia!

From here the Old Man of Storr is normally lost against the mountain backdrop. But the prevailing conditions gave a much better perspective on this occasion:

I was sitting with my son on the bridge at Penllyn last week, facing the lake, when one flew through the bridge arch right underneath us, emerging beneath our dangling legs...
