About this spot
St Columba's Church on the Isle of Lewis is one of the few round churches still standing in Scotland. It's a fascinating piece of history, and it's well worth a visit if you're in the area. St Columba's Church is a beautiful and atmospheric place, and it's a great spot to take photos. The views of the surrounding countryside are stunning, too.
For the best illumination, aim to visit during the day when the sun casts its glow upon the church's structure. If you're keen on capturing the vibrant hues of the sky and silhouette the gravestones and church, then consider visiting in the morning or evening, positioning yourself so that you're shooting towards the sun.
