A fascinating sight that I've never seen before - the Cuillin mountains in a Fata Morgana mirage, taken from Sgurr nan Saighead.

I saw that as well yesterday from Buidhe Beinn at the head of Loch Hourn, except for me it was a continuous sort of fluted wall. A bit like the white cliffs of Dover or the edge of a big ice shelf in the sea. I'll post a photo sometime.

Seen a few photos of this effect. Only seen it once myself.
Nice!
