Old Tour #Scotland #Ancestry Travel Visit #Genealogy #Scottish Family #History Blog #photography of plane flying over Isle Of #Benbecula. Military personnel have had a presence on the island, once called RAF Benbecula, since the Second World War tour-scotland-photographs.blogspot.com/2016/06/old-...
The image shows a causeway curving away from us to the right that is defined by large stones on either side and carries a twin track road. A sign in the right foreground, just to the left of the road, reads "caution, otters crossing". The sky is light blue and the scene is in sunlight.
"Caution Otters Crossing." The South Ford Causeway linking South Uist to Benbecula in the Western Isles. The 800m causeway was opened in 1982, replacing an 82 span single-lane concrete bridge built in 1942. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

Slow carved Lewisian Gneiss Vessel with a deeply tooled diamond ground finish. Over 3 billion years in the making. Carved in the Outer Hebrides.
Isn’t Lewisian Gneiss amazing!

The moon about 3 quarters full. Black sky background.
Probably the same moon 1834 this evening from #Benbecula, #Scotland 😂

My review of the unsettling & atmospheric Benbecula by Graeme Macrae Burnet based on a real life triple murder in 1857 #Benbecula #truecrime #books #bookreviews #historicalfiction #booksky
Darkland Tales, an anthology series diving into compelling moments in Scottish history and branding them with new authorial twists has been an absolute blast from the very start, and its latest entry, Benbecula by Graeme Macrae Burnet, is no different. A riveting read.

#BookAdvent #Day20 Been handselling this one like a demon today. Based on a real life triple murder case in the Hebrides in 1857 this is a spare but extremely powerful read. Perfect.

Next four trips to Scotland sorted as we'll visit the northernmost, southernmost, easternmost and westernmost distilleries - all of them in places we've not been but want to explore. #HighlandPark #Bladnoch #Benbecula #GlenGarioch 🏴🥃💙🏴🥃💙

I’ve finished the book #Benbecula. Incredibly atmospheric. There was one moment when I thought the language was anachronistic but otherwise I was totally immersed in this dark tale and the world of the narrator. The #book goes back to the #library on Monday. #uist

Looking SE at a dark cloudy sky with golden rays of sunshine radiating down towards a strip of calm silvery sea. Dark foreground.
Good afternoon all. Photo taken around 0930 today. #Benbecula #Uist #Hebrides #Scotland #Sunrise
The sun just disappearing over the north end of South Uist. Dark foreground with a small loch to the right reflecting the sky. A few silhouettes of houses visible against the orange sky. Moving up from the horizon the the sky changes gradually to a blue grey colour.

Good evening. A beautiful, almost cloudless day in #Uist today. Stunning sunset, and, an hour later the colours in the sky are still amazing. #Benbecula #Hebrides #Scotland #Sunset
Phone photo of the moon with concentric halos with Jupiter quite close to it at around 7 o’clock (that’s angle, not time!). Lights from the north end of South Uist visible at bottom of photo.

Good morning. The moon,and if one looks closely, Jupiter at around 6 am. Clouded over and raining now. #Benbecula #Hebrides #Scotland
Have a wee visit to a tour #Scotland travel video Blog of old #Scottish #ancestry #history #genealogy #photography of #Benbecula, #Gaelic: Beinn nam Fadhla an island of the #Outer #Hebrides. Also known as An t-Eilean Dorcha " the dark island " tour-scotland-photographs.blogspot.com/2023/04/old-...
Tonight, I am reporting on a trip to the #Outer Hebrides islands (#Scotland) of #Barra, #Eriskay, #South Uist and #Benbecula following a long ferry trip from #Oban on the #Scottish mainland:www.nigelsphotoblog.co.uk/2025/11/barra-to-benbecu...
Looking across the loch from the driveway. Thick grey cloud.
The cover of the book Benbecula, borrowed from the library.
It was a wet day and I have been fascinated by the rather gothic #Benbecula based on true events on the island. Not for the faint hearted. #book #uist
