All islands are clearly defined against the skies this morning. Of particular delight is the Isle of Harris showing her splendour (top right corner).

The Sketchbook Project is the world’s largest collection of artist sketchbooks and is housed in Brooklyn, New York. Many are digitised and available to view from wherever you are, and the actual sketchbooks are often taken around the States on tour of educational establishments. Continuing from my first sketchbook (Fairy Bridge to Lochbay), I’ve started from Lochbay and am sketching from the passing places along the single-track road leading to Stein and Dunhallin. Each location is noted with the what3words app, and you can see the location of today’s sketch above.

I can see the Stein headland from where I’m sketching today. Standing proudly, facing out to sea, dutifully protecting the bay.

Dunvegan headland and the inner islands feel particularly close today – and I can just see North Uist’s Eabhal peering over the skyline to the right.

No outer islands today on the horizon but the inner ones are sunning themselves beautifully amongst the still waters in the bay.

A northerly wind keeps the midges at bay whilst the sunshine tries to coax the haze from the Uist islands.
