Staffa- Fingal’s Cave

I've been wanting to visit Staffa and Fingal’s Cave for as long as I can remember. I found a picture of it in an encyclopedia when I was a kid and the need to see it for myself stuck. I've been on Mull many times but just never made the trip until now. Fucking amazing!!!!! I've been listening to Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture while processing my pictures. He was inspired to write it after a visit in 1830. It really conjures up the feel of the place.
