Scottish islands: Lewis

Callanish takes you back to the elements – it’s raw and cold, like bones of the earth, and it has a strong magic, too. We went there on a windy day in September, with a strangely ethereal sky and quite challenging lighting. At first I thought most of the photos were useless but with a bit of imagination they have been resurrected.
