0344 this morning and the partial lunar eclipse reached its peak on a cloudless night. This was also the harvest moon, one of four supermoons this year but on this occasion only 4% of the moon's disc was covered in darkness by the umbra shadow. You will have to wait until August 2026 when a whopping 96% of the surface will be covered, weather permitting.

After a grim summer it's lovely to enjoy a warm balmy night with a sunset across Strathaird.

Autumn can be a wonderful time to visit the Isle of Skye. The roads are quiet, the colours are spectacular and there's often the chance to see the Northern Lights. We love the walks around Ord, perfect to unwind from your life elsewhere. Enjoy a short video of Ord and Loch Eishort this week.
