The
Gang: Veronica, Guide Iain and Monica
Snapshots of Scotland
Scotland (and the Western Isles in particular) must be one of the most picturesque
places to travel. I have hundreds of pictures, but here are a few of the highlights
from my most recent trips. Don’t miss the Picture
Book(s) in Special Features for more pictures specific to the books. And
if you really can’t get enough of Scotland, check out more pictures
on Flickr.
You can also watch a slideshow.
Enjoy!
