Scottish Print of Skyes Old Man of Storr in this photographic print
The Old Man of Storr is a distinctive basalt pinnacle that rises from the Trotternish Ridge on the north-east coast of the Isle of Skye, standing at around 50 metres and visible from much of the surrounding landscape. The Storr itself — the broader rocky outcrop of which the Old Man forms the most recognisable part — sits above Loch Leathan and offers views across the Sound of Raasay and the mainland mountains beyond. This landscape photography print was captured during a campervan trip to the Highlands, the photographer having stayed overnight to be in position for the sunrise — conditions that turned out to be far more demanding than anticipated. Storm winds of 60mph or more made the hike to the pinnacle one of the most challenging of the trip, and keeping the tripod steady in those conditions required patience and persistence. The result is a sunrise image with a raw, elemental quality that reflects the exposed and unpredictable nature of the Skye landscape, and which works particularly well as wall art at larger sizes where the drama of the scene can be fully appreciated.
The Old Man of Storr is one of the most photographed subjects in Scotland, and the challenge is always finding the conditions that give the image something beyond the familiar. A storm sunrise — with the light breaking through moving cloud and the wind shaping the atmosphere of the scene — is rarely planned and rarely repeated, and it is those conditions that give this print its particular character as artwork. Whether you're looking for a considered piece of home decor for a Scottish Highlands, Isle of Skye or mountain landscape-themed room, a striking artwork for a hallway or living space, or a thoughtful gift for someone with a love of Scotland, Skye or dramatic storm and mountain photography, this print offers a strong sense of place at any size.
