After a decade photographing Farnborough Town, Farnborough FC and the Supporters Team, I have decided to step down as club photographer for the coming season. Instead I will be concentrating on my career and personal photographic projects.

It's been a privilege to have been club photographer and I have worked with some wonderful people at the football club. In particular I'd like to thank Steve Duly, Vince Williams and Tony Theo for their support during this time.

Finally got around to uploading the final set of landscape pictures from holiday and they can be found here.

My holiday finishes with a quick two day visit to, almost, the rest of the Outer Hebrides. These islands consist of, from north to south, Berneray, North Uist, Grimsay, Benbecular, South Uist and Eriskay. They have the fraction of the population of the much larger Lewis & Harris to the north and fewer mountains. And as much as I never got those islands I really like these and it's probably the most friendly place I've ever visited. Quiet, relaxing, friendly and some stunning scenery - definitely worth another visit in the future but probably from Skye or Oban rather than Harris.

The visit to the Uists was all to brief and with, finally, some decent weather it was onto the morning ferry to Skye and the start to returning home. A quick circuit around Skye and the across to Inverness was the order of the day on Bank Holiday Monday. A lovely trip but after coming off the Outer Hebrides it's back in the world of idiot drivers and midlife crisis males on their overpowered motorbike.

For Tuesday the decent weather disappeared and I had a dull trip down to Greenock. In hindsight I would probably have simply gone home in one or two days from North Uist. As it is I will hit the road early tomorrow and head home. The diet starts again tomorrow :)

Sheep, campervans, grey pebble dash and sheep. Well that's the northern Outer Hebrides summed up. Of course there are also mountains, lochans and glorious sandy beaches too. For some reason these islands have failed to inspire, I'm really not sure why, so it's been a quieter week with less driving and more relaxing - plus walks on the beaches when the weather allows.

In fact the weather has generally been better than the BBC forecast - stuck away in the top corner we're just as likely be covered by some logo anyway. The last couple of days have been better, whilst still cold, but today is wet and miserable as I plan the final part of my holiday.

Tomorrow morning it's back onto the CalMac ferry and down to the islands of Berneray, North Uist, Benbecula and South Uist for two days. Then across to Skye and the mainland with stays in Inverness and Greenock as I wend my way back home.
