EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1935, showcases the picturesque village of Shieldaig nestled in the heart of Wester Ross in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland. The village, which is situated on the shores of a tranquil bay, is surrounded by the breathtaking natural beauty of the Scottish landscape. The image, taken from the island, offers a unique perspective of Shieldaig, revealing the quaint houses with their slate roofs and whitewashed walls, huddled together against the rugged coastline. The village's church, with its tall steeple, stands proudly at the center, serving as a beacon for the community. The clear blue waters of the bay are dotted with small boats, which were once used by the local fishermen to make their living from the abundant sea life. The surrounding hills, covered in lush greenery, provide a striking contrast to the calm waters below. This photograph, taken during the 1930s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler way of life. The village of Shieldaig, with its natural beauty and close-knit community, remains a popular destination for visitors seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of modern life and connect with the natural world.
