The Cold of Winter

It's amazing how quickly the sky changes as the sun rises.  These two pictures were taken less than ten minutes apart....

 ....just before nine this morning.  It wasn't only the colours, the shape of the clouds had altered.

One thing that didn't change through the morning was the bitter southeasterly wind.  Although....

....we had moments of watery sunshine - this one at a quarter past ten as the Raasay was sailing for Tobermory - the sky remained grey and cheerless and....

...the snow which fell yesterday afternoon persisted above the 100m contour - picture shows the Kilchoan Coastguard hut with Glas Bheinn beyond.
