If it wasn't for the fact I know it's Hawaii (easily identified by the grass in the foreground they use for making skirts) I would suggest it might be Edinburgh after the full effects of global warming.

Okay. I'll be more specific.
The photo was taken off Eilean nam Beathach looking up the Firth of Lorn with the hills of Morven in the far distance and Duart to the left.
Just a shame that such a beautiful and natural view is spoiled by the monstrosities in the foreground.
So...I claim the prize.
Not the cigar please, I don't smoke (disgusting habit!) so please make the cash equivalent donation to whoever pays the annual server rental and domain registration for this site.
Who does BTW?

"Point of the Sassenachs"????????

Must be, otherwise he would have called it Sheep Island.

I still claim my prize for being closest, in fact within half a mile.

And thanks NickMcB....all unwanted bodily hair now cleared.

Longshanks, are you sure your nostrils are clear?

It seems an awful lot has been getting up your nose recently.
