New Year's Day 2008
Contents
It was murky in the north of the Union with one instance of snow in the east, some blue skies in the extreme south.
I've arranged my selection from the images in more or less (map) north to south order, and added a brief description where there was none.

Also part of Ardmeanach SSSI, an important site for the sequence of lava flows which built the main cone of the Mull Volcano. Link

This is on the forest trail from Rhubodach. I thought the rock formation on the left was a hut of some kind at first, but it's just a rock.

Unusual that this bunker is open. View within bunker showing blue painted walls and a horse-drawn carriage! Looks like it has been there years. The entrance to the shelter suggests that the local sheep use this shelter for protection from the climate and have left much evidence of them being there...

Artfield Fell is the site of a windfarm, but on what was a very foggy day the wind turbines were virtually invisible in the mist, so instead I opted for this photo of an artificial pond and abandoned derelict all-terrain vehicle as a first geograph for the square.
