These won't count towards the Top 10 lists we're looking to produce, but why not share some of your favourite moments spent in Scotland...

Two of mine involve sunsets, both of which I have probably mentioned before but here they are again.

The first was when I was a kid on holiday in Morar. Standing on Tougal beach (Morar Bay) both myself and my older brother stood watching the sun set over Rum. Neither one of us had a camera on us... and neither one of us was prepared to go and get a camera! One of these days I will get a sunset from this spot! :roll:

The other sunset was in July 2006 at the Mull of Kintyre... and its the one that makes up my avatar! What can I say about it apart from its something I doubt I will ever witness again!

One of my favorite moments was a few years ago, I was driving from Kingshouse towards Glencoe. It was storming, and the Black Corries and Buachaille Etive Mor looked black as the gates of hades. Behind them the sun was shining on Glen Coe. The view was absolutely unreal.

Unfortunately the traffic was heavy, and I could not find a place to pull over to take a picture. One of those wasted moments. :(
