Highland Boundary

This picture of the Highland Boundary is for sale.

It comes as a canvas, a framed print, a framed mounted print or an acrylic.

Why not take a look at my other West Highland Way images.

The view of the islands of Loch Lomond from the top of Conic Hill.

These were formed as part of the Highland Boundary Fault that marks the start of the Scottish Highlands. The Fault forms a straight line diagonally across the country, from Helensburgh in the west to Stonehaven in the north-east. South of the line, the country is low and relatively flat, while to the north there are mountains.

The picture shows the ridge of Conic Hill descending towards the Loch in the foreground. The islands of Inchcailloch and Torrinch beyond it look almost as if they are connected. Creinch and Inchmurrin are more distinct, and Ben Bowie continues the fault line on the far side. The waters of the Gare Loch are just visible in the distance, while the island of Clairinish sits on its own to the left.
