Beautiful Scottish Mountain Pictures by Ela
A few weeks ago I found a blog, Around Scotland, with beautiful views of the Scottish Mountains, taken not from the glens but from high up in the hills. Due to a wee injury in my lower back I can't make such trips myself anymore which is why I enjoyed these breathtaking pictures even more.

Stunning New Pages on Scotland Info
Over the years I've taken thousands of pictures and visited many parts of Scotland and most of these places made a lasting impression, both in my mind and in harddisk space as pictures on my computer. Some of these images and memories have found a place on the current Scotland Info Website pages but a lot of them haven't, but that is about to change. I'm quite proud to announce a new section on the Scotland Info website titled Scotland Feature Pages. These pages will be dedicated to the most beautiful places I've been to in Scotland and it doesn't come as a surprise that this will eventually … [Read more...] about Stunning New Pages on Scotland Info
