Hiya Caroline,
Not as far as I know- most of these sites have only been discovered recently (before the survey only 4 sites were known on the north side of Loch Tay; after the survey they had found 121!!!). I guess the RCAHMS would hold the pics from the sites, but that would mean a trip to their library and catalogues (though in a recent user survery I suggested that such info should be online).
There was some cracking pics during the presentation- one site in particular- a huge double cup and ring marking with about 7 or 8 rings way above Loch Tay with the Loch stretching out behind the rock. The site is now back under turf though,
Cheery,
Martin

Thanks
Just had a little thought due to associations with water you mentioned. Water always makes me think of birth/life wouldn't it be lovely if they were carved to commemerate birth (ideal place to give birth near water) a culture that celebrated birth more than death.
Maybe higher places were where the child was bathed in sunlight.
i'm off before i get carried away. ;)
love caroline xx
