sven · Dec 11, 2011

Now I've finally figured out how to embed links to Picasa, I thought I'd upload my photos from last April's trip to the west coast :beerjug:

Days 3 & 4 - Isle of Mull

We stopped in an excellent little B&B above Tobermory call "Little Erray" :thumb2

and had the best steak I've eaten in the UK in the Galleon Grill :beerjug:

Nice pics, I used to go out with a girl who lived in Kilmun just up on the hill on the right :beerjug:

Looks like you were very very lucky with the weather.

Great pics :thumb2

Mr K · Dec 11, 2011

+1 on the weather.

:popcorn

(RIP) andrewgsadv · Dec 11, 2011

Fantastic weather and light quality. What stunning photos. :thumb2

What camera `s you using Sven

sven · Dec 11, 2011

We went at the end of April so were lucky to have six days of glorious weather and two days of crappy weather on the last two days heading south (until we crossed the border)

The photos were taken on a Lumix LX5 which is a great little camera :thumb2

RJT_Berlin · Dec 12, 2011

Fantastic pics and a great reminder of my trip in May 2010.....

We were lucky with the weather two, not quite as much sun as you though!!

Sooooo want to go back to Scotland and would seriously contemplate living there.

Guess next year though I am gonna take a year away from Scotland and go to Italy, but I will be back for sure

Those pics give me the warm fuzzies......

rce · Dec 12, 2011

Fantastic, Scotland at it's finest

mcinlb · Dec 12, 2011

Great photos Sven, covered a lot of that ground, not always in as good weather. Just the tonic for this time of year.

Big Nick · Dec 12, 2011

Nice photos, pissed down all week when I was there !!

Buttso · Dec 12, 2011

fantastic weather you got..... lovely pics....

Homer1968 · Dec 12, 2011

Good ride report Sven. Like some have already said,i'm another who as only ever seen this area in the rain

Pip_UK · Dec 14, 2011

Fantastic pics Sven. UKGSer Trip report section is a great inspiration/tourist board marketing aid for the beauty of Scotland, and evidence that the weather can be fantastic too. At least until Photoshop gets an 'improve weather' slider.

Also, please could you post your technique for how you embedded photos from Picasa? I failed miserably, and a how-to would be FAQ/Sticky/Font-worthy IMO.

I used Matt W's guide in the photography section http://www.ukgser.com/forums/showthread.php?t=241898 :thumb2
