Shelter - a photo on Flickriver

Shelter

The most unusual and certainly the most remote camera obscura I've ever been to, located seemingly in the middle of nowhere, about a mile along the shore from Lochmaddy, at Sponish, North Uist, in the Outer Hebrides, Known as 'The hut of the shadows" It seems far more suited to being a storm shelter as the peice of glass used to see out from was covred in mud and the inside seems to be just used by the local sheep, still it makes for a nice backdrop against a dramatic stormy sky which was heading inland towards the mountains, over the sea.
