Luath, fantastic photo.
Without a doubt Scotland is a beautifull place.Photographers say that the play of sunlight through moist Scottish air provides a sort of beauty that is unique.
But some members state that they are equally mixed with peoples that come from parts of the world that are just as striking in thier own way.The alps of Germany,the Dolomites of eastern europe,etc.Is there a sort of extra,romantisized pull to Scotland above other just as legitimate 'lost homelands' at play?If so it is fascinating to wonder why.
What forces are at play to make a fellow who could perhaps drop in on maybe half a dozen different and equaly historic 'fatherlands',bypass these to head for Scotland and wear a kilt whilst hiking on Skye,thoughrelly enjoyable as that would be!All for a connection that in some cases may be far more tenuous than what he has with other,historicaly closer forefathers.It's just a really interesting phenomenon.
