Photo was taken on the rocky shores of Loch Slapin close to Glasnakille, Elgol on the Isle of Skye and shows a group of Silver Birch trees clinging to eroded overhanging rocky cliffs with the blue waters of the Sea Loch beneath. The eroded cliffs clearly show layered sedimentary rock strata which is a feature of this area.
