TRAVEL PHOTOBLOG Whispers of the Highlands I woke up to the soft patter of rain against the windows of my car. Outside, the world was shrouded in morning fog, with the brown hills barely visible beneath the overcast sky. As I walked along the river, the only sound was the gentle slosh of water. The moors opened up before me, revealing the true essence of the Highlands. The vibrant purple of the heather stood out against the dark brown of the landscape and the gray sky, creating a scene of haunting beauty. “Oh, the Highlands, how grand they are, * With their rugged peaks and valleys far, Where the mist hangs low and the heather blooms, In the quiet and peace of the Highlands’ rooms.” * “The Highland Mountains”By William Topaz McGonagall All images © 2024 Adventure for Impact
