Day 3 of Bettina Kube´s black and white 5 day photo challenge and today's photo was taken in glorious sunshine at the Achness Falls near Rosehall. It's a great place just to sit and listen to the rushing water and if I had been there a week earlier after the heavy rain then the falls would have been even more spectacular. When the river is in full flood the noise is almost deafening but when they are like this there is a good chance of seeing salmon negotiate the falls as they head upstream to spawn but sadly non seen during my short stay!

Day 1 of Bettina Kube´s black and white 5 day photo challenge and thanks to Val Moliere for nominating us. It's very strange to starting "thinking in black & white again" and whilst the bright blue sky we enjoyed in the Highlands yesterday was superb for touring around, the lack of any clouds meant that there is very little of interest in a monochrome sky. The first picture is our local distillery of Balblair in the village of Edderton and notable to us for several reasons, the visitor centre is our nearest shop, the mast on the hill in the background is directly above our home as we nestle by the shore of the Dornoch Firth and it was also the location used for the filming of The Angels' Share. Black and white I think works quite well with this photo as the building is very much as it was 60 years ago and apart from a quite modern pickup it could have been taken in the 50s

Day 2 of Bettina Kube´s black and white 5 day photo challenge and today's photo was taken in glorious sunshine and shows Tressady Lodge, which is situated on the opposite side of the glen to our own lodges. It was originally built as a hunting lodge for the Duke of Sutherland and is set in an estate of around 22,000 acres. The bright sunshine means that there are good strong shadows really bringing out the blackness. The surrounding mixed woodland is showing some dramatic autumn colours but although lost in monochrome it does make you realise how the different leaves and their colours offer a great variety of shade and texture.

Day 4 of Bettina Kube´s black and white 5 day photo challenge and today's photo was taken at Tarbet Ness just underneath the Lighthouse. This point is at the point where the Dornoch Firth joins with the huge Moray Firth. It is possible at times to see dolphins. minke whales as well as the odd basking shark. In the distance is are the hills Sutherland with the Duke of Sutherland's statue above Golspie as well as Dunrobin Castle and the beaches at Dornoch and Embo
