| Climbed up an embankment next to the road and took photos over a 2 hour period. Realised (luckily) after the 1st 20 photos that the camera was set on manual setting accidently at a faster shutter speed. Only got good light for 2 more photos (this is one of them). Left of the bay is a ruined castle which I walked around earlier. Sheep have paint on them so farmers know their sheep from each other. | Driving between mountains around dusk, catching glimpses of the sunset but no good views getting frustrated then this view just appeared around a bend. As the light was nearly gone, screached to a halt, raced out of the car with camera gear, set up and snapped it in probably a minute which is close to a record with all the gear I carry around. | For my trip around Scotland, I used this hotel as my base. I actually saw a great photo of the nearby Eileen Donan Castle and wanted to reproduce it. I was actually here about 2 weeks waiting until we had a sunny day. Unfortunately the photos were not that great so I learned a little (expensive) lesson! Photo taken from the roof of a shed. That my car on left. Nice car. Pity you can't see it! |
