I spent one night near Glencoe on my way to Ullapool, about 3 weeks ago. A bit of a gamble hoping for that one sunrise to work out, but the weather cooperated beautifully. A clear and frosty night had put some ice on the water and turn the grass nice and crisp (with icicles hanging on the banks). I had spent 9 days there 3 years ago in the same time of year, but it was so grey and bland back then that it took this one morning to see why some of these locations are so famous.
I have it on Velvia as well, but haven't developed those yet. But however that turns out, I think this one will stand its ground anyway.

I still find a sentence full of hashtags hard to comprehend. I'm probably just old.

A very nice composition of Buachaille Etive Mor (The Great Shepherd) with a different foreground (I'm assuming that's a pool in the peat moor) from the usual River Coupall.

Re: Large Format Landscapes

Thank you both, much appreciated.

Yes, this is from a little further back, quite close to the bridge. Kind of half way between the bridge and the road into Glen Etive. This little pool is connected to the River Etive, as you can see on the left. I had seen this bit 3 years ago, but couldn't quite make it work in the circumstances. Luckily I could find something fairly quickly this time, as I only arrived about 30 minutes before sunrise. The moon was actually on the left of the Buachaille before sunrise, perfectly placed, but went behind it just before the first light hit the mountain.

Only been once to Glencoe sadly before I took up LF. Much history for me personally being a MacDonald. Beautiful image - makes me what to go back again.

It does not matter, the results of velvia, because this work is breathtaking!
