Above Uig Sands – Two Views, One Spot

Rainbow over Uig Sands on the Isle of Lewis, Outer Hebrides, showing sweeping coastal views and dramatic changing skies

Both of these shots were taken from the same place — the car park of Uig Sands Rooms. I simply flew the drone straight up, then turned 180 degrees.

It’s incredible how completely the view changes. One direction shows a full rainbow stretching over the bay; the other looks inland across the rugged peaks and shifting light of Lewis.

That’s what I love about flying here — you don’t need to move far to get a completely different story. Same location, same moment, two entirely different moods.
