Description A view of Blaven (Bla Bheinn) and neighbouring peaks from the Elgol road on the Isle Of Skye from near Loch Chriosd.Β 

"Double delusion! Here I'm held
By the mystery of the rock,
Must watch in a perpetual dream,
The horizon's gates unlock and lock,"

from The Mountains by Edwin Muir

I love the contrast between the soft country in the foreground and the bleak ruggedness of Bla Bheinn in the background. It highlights (to me anyway) one of the most enchanting features of Scotland, its diverse yet compact terrain.
