Scalpay Photographs by Dr. Bernard Blain (2)

Scalpay Photographs by Dr. Bernard Blain (2): Below is a collection of images of the Isle of Scalpay which we recieved from Annag. Taken in the mid 1960's, by photographer Dr. Bernard Blain and concentrating on the area of Outend, these photographs show a lifestyle which is sadly on the decrease. We wish to personally thank Dr. Bernard Blain for allowing us to display these photographs which, we are sure will be greatly appreciated by the people of Scalpay and visitors to this site. I also wish to thank Annag for her patience as it took me some time to prepare the images for display. Please click on the thumbnails to view and enlargement.
