Below are the most recent images. They have not yet been added to the main galleries as they are not ready for printing. In fact, many of them may not be added, as this section is a means of uploading all images, 'warts and all', and reflecting on them to see if they might be worthwhile.

28 June 2010

Mid Summer dusk from Ben Cruachan - a slightly later shot than the image below, taken at about 9:45pm. The light over Loch Etive was exquisite to watch, and despite the overcast sky, it was still light enough to make it back to the car at midnight without using a headtorch.

 

26 June 2010

Mid Summer dusk from Ben Cruachan - a very strange and moody light emphasising the preponderance of greens.

25 May 2010

Not great light, but I liked the 'dancing' effect of the water. One for another day in better light.

Loch Pityoulish, Cairngorms, during a snow shower. A natural mooring bollard!

6 April 2010

All the rain that we've had recently has been an opportunity to take advantage of the soft light...

 

5 April 2010: nature's symmetry

I just loved this location. The symmetry that I really wanted to capture here is not just what might immediately be obvious; it was the link between the green moss in the water, and the moss in the trees, and the fact that this aspect of the image's symmetry is not a result of the reflection.

5 April 2010: woodland scene

I stumbled across this lovely bit of woodland in the Central Highlands. The greens were very intense, all the more so due to the soft light in the rain. The second image below was made in brighter light after it had stopped raining.
