I thought I would post up some of my own mountain pics taken at home and abroad. From I was a kid I always loved looking at them ... then when I was old enough I started climbing them. Well here are some of the pics I have taken down the years.
They will be in no particular order, hope you like them
The first one was taken at the top of Ben Alligin North West Scotland, in February 1986
The next one was taken on top of the Cuillin Ridge on the Scottish Island of Skye a few days later.
Well thats a start, I'll add a few more as I get the time.

I took this photo using 35mm slide film in winter from the top of Benn Eighe in the late 80s. It looks out to the west towards Liathach and the North Atlantic.
It is a fine winter scramble along the ridge

Awesome pics, brother! Thank you for sharing them wiff us!
Have you heard of the mountains on the West coast of Norway, Sunnmørsalpene (= the Sunnmøre Alps)? They are great. Here's a website: http://www.sunnmorealps.com/ it is only in Norwegian, unfortunately, but if you click on bilder (which means pictures), you can see a list of pics to click on. I live near these mountains. The view is awesome. Hope you'll enjoy the pics!
I also found one with an article in English for you http://www.sunalp.no/ Just click on the little Union Jack on that webpage. That page has an awesome bildearkiv (picture gallery).

Hi NorwayUnn,
You're right the pictures are fantastic, i liked the one of 'Patchellhytta'
The other site is amazing also ... some awesome shots. I liked this one
Reminds me of when I was involved in the Mountain Resue Team.
Thanks for sharing Sis

Ok now you two have just gotten too extreme for me! After watching "Vertical Limit" I just cannot take pictures such as "ice climbing" without my heart stopping,LOL!

Its OK soblessed53 as I have gotten older I prefer to take my time in the Mountains. I like to sit down often and enjoy the view or a chat with my friends. We have an old saying here, that 'youth is wasted on the young'
I was fortunate to survive mine by the grace of God
A favourite climber of mine is a guy called Reinhold Messner he comes off with some good old sayings. Here's one which I think you will appreciate
"There are OLD climbers and there are BOLD climbers BUT
there are no OLD BOLD climbers
Thats me now
