No, but right part of the world (which you probably guessed as most of my photos come from the NW!)

Yep. Taken from the southern tip of Applecross, just east of Uags, with Plockton just out of frame to the right. All yours...

Clue: the big bulk behind her is a Munro, usually climbed on its own. We're north of Fort William.

No, sorry, too far north :D

Still too far north... :wink: But you're right about the unobvious angle of the Munro. 99% of walkers tackle this M from the opposite side.

In that case I'm going to go back to my original thought of it being a view of Sgurr a' Mhaoraich, hopefully from Maol Chinn-Dearg?

Thanks for all guesses, Wee Lucy proved popular :lol: :lol:

Rockhopper was close enough so he gets the biscuit :D It's Beinn Sgritheall seen from the north, from the summit of Beinn a'Chapuill, a lovely obscure Graham :D
