This is another long lens landscape – I took several shots to get what I was seeing with my eyes, I was messing around shooting across the light. I loved the ruffled patch of water and I loved the light on the trees to the left of the image, but was failing to join them in an interesting way so I moved my perspective more in to the light and hey presto the graduation you can now see. With strong light and reflection fading towards the patch of different water. In the end I moved from being frustrated to being satisfied. I hope you enjoy it too.
I wished to be in this amazing ambience… to be lost in this beautiful colours… This is great shot! But please, could you tell me where is this place, I want to write to my mind, like a poem of photography. Thank you, love, nia
This is Glen Affric in the heart of the Scottish Highlands
To be honest, I don’t know very well Scottish Highlands, how beautiful. I would like to travel through your photographs, seems that it would be so nice and exciting… I love your country, and landscapes… Fascinating me always. Thank you once again, love, nia
no thank you and I hope you enjoy the journey
I enjoyed this very much Scott! Yet another excellent scene perfectly captured! You rocked this one!
beautiful reflections
I’ll go with Phil on this one… you rocked it! I love the transitions taking place. Definitely not a place for HDR. And the ruffled patch just puts the frosting on it. Lovely and so tranquil.
Wonderful, magic photo…..orofiorentino

such a beautiful scene scott
Breathtaking is the word that comes to mind. What a beautifully tranquil scene, Scott. VisitScotland should be sponsoring your blog.
now if you could make that happen – you are good for a cut
I can’t even get them to put copies of my book in their shops. They’re rather a bureaucratic organisation I’m afraid, but they’re missing out on a great opportunity with your blog!
Yes, you really did get this scene down, perfectly. The golden reflection is stunning.
This is so gorgeous, and to state the obvious it looks like a watercolour painting. I love how the somewhat diagonal composition is offset by the pool of reflection in the water. Great work.
I like it very much…beautiful shot.
What a beautiful Autumn we have had. Lovely subtle image.
Yes it has been a great Autumn – North of Scotland though has a large evergreen population – but the colour is still there is you seek it out.
