Last Morning in Scotland

thereyougo! · Nov 6, 2016

From this morning - I extended my stay at the hotel by one night - glad I did! I went to the popular shooting location on the banks of the Coupall and there was a workshop group of 10 who were taking it in turns shooting exactly the same shot...so moved further up the A82.

These are the best of your recent sets up here IMO. Plus the conditions look really great. Moody lighting with dramatic skies, great scenery, nicely shot.

Sods law with the workshop though!

That is the shot! Much jealous matey as I've not managed one that good myself. Cracking job.

I like to see the same mountain in different light. Glad you are patient enough to come back over and over again. I love Scotland!

Thanks mate, it's great when mother nature is your photographic assistant!

I took this from the bridge over the Etive about 2 thirds away from the Kingshouse Hotel junction to the Glen Etive turn-off. Can't wait to return, pity it's a 8/9 hour drive from home...

Thank you. A Fotodiox adapter does exist for the Pentax 645 system to Sony E but it isn't available in the UK at the moment. Might be available in the US though.
