Beautiful Isle of Skye
Music: Come Home To Me, Tim Janis
A little video I made on my ipad of a trip to beautiful Skye earlier this year..
Before reaching Skye, I stopped off at Eilean Donan Castle, it appears a lot in pictures of Scotland, because it is so picturesque, and has appeared in many films and television programmes too.
Eilean Donan (Scottish Gaelic: Eilean Donnain) is a small tidal island where three lochs meet, Loch Duich, Loch Long and Loch Alsh, in the western Highlands of Scotland. The castle was restored in the early 20th Century, and a footbridge now connects the island to the mainland.
Then onto Portree the largest town on Skye... and the pictures show the colourful harbour..
The Skye Museum of Island Life at Kilmuir, was opened in 1965. The aim was to preserve a township of thatched cottages, each one depicting, as closely as possible, the conditions prevailing on the island at the close of the nineteenth century...The Weavers cottage is one of many preserved cottages..
Then onto Cill Chriosd (Christ's Church or Kilchrist) and is a ruined former parish church of Strathaird. It was constructed around the 16th century, replacing an earlier Medieval church on the same location, and was used until 1840 when the Parish church was relocated to Broadford.
I loved the old celtic cross stones, and the view of the mountains behind.. I think I scared the odd sheep as I wandered around..
The next place I photographed was Bla Bheinn..The name Blà Bheinn is thought to mean blue mountain, from a combination of Norse and Gaelic.
Moving onto the Storr...(Scottish Gaelic: An Stòr) and is a rocky hill on the Trotternish peninsula ..The area in front of the cliffs of the Storr is known as the Sanctuary. It has a number of weirdly shaped rock pinnacles, the remnants of ancient landslips.
And finally to beautiful Elgol.. (Scottish Gaelic: Ealaghol) and is a village on the shores of Loch Scavaig towards the end of the Strathaird peninsula..it is a crofting and fishing village, and I enjoyed dipping my toes into the water on a beautiful warm sunshiney day..

The Isle of Skye, connected to Scotland's northwest coast by bridge, is known for its rugged landscapes, picturesque fishing villages and medieval castles. The largest island in the Inner Hebrides archipelago, it has an indented coastline of peninsulas and narrow lochs, radiating out from a mountainous interior. The town of Portree, a base for exploring the island, features harbourside pubs and boutiques.
Isle of Skye is the largest and northernmost of the major islands in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland. The island's peninsulas radiate from a mountainous centre dominated by the Cuillins, the rocky slopes of which provide some of the most dramatic mountain scenery in the country. Although it has been suggested that the Gaelic Sgitheanach describes a winged shape there is no definitive agreement as to the name's origins.
The main industries are tourism, agriculture, fishing and forestry. Skye is part of the Highland Council local government area. The island's largest settlement is Portree, known for its picturesque harbour. There are links to various nearby islands by ferry and, since 1995, to the mainland by a road bridge. The climate is mild, wet and windy. The abundant wildlife includes the golden eagle, red deer and Atlantic salmon. The local flora are dominated by heather moor, and there are nationally important invertebrate populations on the surrounding sea bed. Skye has provided the locations for various novels and feature films and is celebrated in poetry and song.
Portree in the north at the base of Trotternish is the largest settlement and is the main service centre on the island. Broadford, the location of the island's only airstrip, is on the east side of the island and Dunvegan in the north-west is well known for its castle and the nearby Three Chimneys restaurant. The 18th-century Stein Inn on the Waternish coast is the oldest pub on Skye. Kyleakin is linked to Kyle of Lochalsh on the mainland by the Skye Bridge, which spans the narrows of Loch Alsh. Uig, the port for ferries to the Outer Hebrides, is on the west of the Trotternish peninsula and Edinbane is between Dunvegan and Portree. Much of the rest of the population lives in crofting townships scattered around the coastline.
Skye is linked to the mainland by the Skye Bridge, while ferries sail from Armadale on the island to Mallaig, and from Kylerhea to Glenelg. Ferries also run from Uig to Tarbert on Harris and Lochmaddy on North Uist, and from Sconser to Raasay. The Isle of Skye Airfield at Ashaig, near Broadford, is used by private aircraft and occasionally by NHS Highland and the Scottish Ambulance Service for transferring patients to hospitals on the mainland.

All Saints Church at Newchurch, Isle of Wight, 26th August 2013
This short video is of a walk round the beautiful little church of All Saints in the village of Newchurch on the Isle of Wight. This building was on my bucket list of places to visit and I'm glad I finally had the chance to see it in all it's glory and go inside.
Filmed on my Sony Cybershot DSC-H55 digital camera on 26th August 2013.

The Cherry Orchard_Beyond the Truth-1m30s /Theater Margot company (Korea)
The precious cherry orchard auction day, fix your eyes on the oriental Chekhov that throw a silly party
A 21st century tragicomedy version of ‘The Cherry Orchard’ by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, interpreted through the physical approach for the very first time.
During its two year run in Korea, this performance of The Cherry Orchard received two Best Play Awards out of three competitions it entered. It also won the 2014 Busan International Theatre Festival’s most prestigious award, the Best New Play.
Out of the 17 characters in the original play, this work focuses only on the kitsch style of three women with pink hair from the East. Instead of through dialogue, the performance is expressed through the physical approach using the human body’s explosive and unique movements. The music is based on realistic sounds (ambient sounds) and the performance uses 19 objects beyond imagination.

The ME/MYSELF/& I band are all closet Jacobites, identifying with James II--the Catholic King of Scotland--after the Protestant invasion from England in 1688. His grandson Charles Edward Stuart (Bonnie Prince Charlie) led the Jacobites in the uprising of 1745, to crushing defeat. The alcoholic who penned this is anonymous. (Feelin' rebellious? Sing alang!)
Wha wadna fecht for Cherlie
Wha wadna draw the sword
Wha wadna up and rally
At the Royal Prince’s word
Think on Scotia’s ancient heroes
Think on foreign foes repelled
Think on loyal Bruce and Wallace
Wha the proud usurper quelled
See the northern clans advancing
See Glengarry and Lochiel
See the brandished broadsword glancing
Highland hearts as true as steel
Now the Prince has raised his banner
Now triumphant is our cause
Now the Scottish Lion rallies
Let us fight for prince and cause.
