Commentary. I have enjoyed climbing many mountains in Scotland, some of them, several times. Rarely can one capture the scale, the grandeur, the humbling texture of rocks that have been metamorphosed and eroded for between 500 million and 3 billion years, almost three-quarters of the age, of this amazing planet. Awesome. Magnificent. Surreal. Moving. Dynamic. Fantastic. Many more adjectives trip off the tongue. No matter how pleasing the image, it comes nowhere near the ecstasy of being there, feeling that stunning reality, that wild, breath-taking beauty. The slope, near right, plunges almost 3,500 feet, straight down to the valley floor. Quite overwhelming. I am truly privileged to have felt this magic, so many times. I wish everyone could be there, and sense these emotions, on such a throne of the Gods. Alas, not possible…… but this, is the nearest that I can offer!
