On the east coast of Scalpay stands Eilean Glas Lighthouse — the oldest lighthouse in the Outer Hebrides, first lit in 1789 as one of the original four built by the Commissioners of the Northern Lights. The current tower dates from 1824, built by Robert Stevenson of the famous lighthouse-building family, and has guided ships through the treacherous waters of the Minch ever since.


Photographed by night, its beam cuts a sharp line across the still water toward the hills of Skye, dark clouds pressing low overhead. It's a striking sight — one of Scotland's earliest lights, still doing exactly what it was built to do more than two centuries ago.


Photographed on location on the Isle of Scalpay, Outer Hebrides, Scotland.
