Winter Buchaille


ian cameron

Although it has been photographed a milion times and will certainly be photographed a million more this is one of the clearest crispest mornings I can remember for a considerable while and the side lighting does a splendid job of revealing the mountain rock face detail of this one of Scotland's most beloved of mountains. The simple dusting of snow on both the foreground soil which conceals some unsightly blemishes, the azure blue sky and icing sugar crust on the peak all serve to give this scene that little extra prominence for the classic shot.New!! Photographic workshops and masterclasses updated in 2009 at TRANSIENT LIGHT.

A classic view of a classic peak. The Buchaille Etive Mor, Glencoe,

Scotland with a light dusting of snow showing its fractured ramparts in

delicious morning light.

...an excellent composition, Ian. The Greeks called Scotland, ''Scotia'' whch has an etymological meaning of, darkness and is certainly not applicable in this case. Warm regards and keep up the traditions of Hogmanay in your new year celebrations, Dimitris.

You seem to be lucky with the weather... Great executed landscape photo, the stream really directs the eye to the daunting peak.

This image demands more than a casual view, the viewers eye moves about the image with much to see. Beautiful landscape!
