Any information about the person or the photo?

Thanks again for posting these.
The gentleman is George MacDonald, Bunacaimb, Morar, also photographed by Miss M E M Donaldson about 1910. The caption of the photo (from the book Tartan by Hugh Cheape) reads:

"It was unusual for country folk to possess Highland dress of such quality, but as a successful piper (MacDonald) had the wardrobe compulsory for competition piping in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
