The Sligachan Old Bridge

Isle of Skye, Scotland

The Sligachan Old Bridge was built between 1810 and 1818 by Thomas Telford and offers a view of the Cuillin Mountains in the distance. There is a legend that dipping your face for seven seconds in the River Sligachan grants eternal beauty.

Did you dip? A bridge over untroubled waters with a wild-looking backdrop - but I do miss the forest that surely once must have been there.

The figure is a fine addition to this somewhat bleak landscape, although the bridge and mountain are anything but bleak!
