Elgol Crimson

I was assisting a group of Russian photographers at Glencoe and Skye and this was our second visit the first night was gorgeous but on this occasion the notorious Skye weather surpassed itself with a fiery crimson glow as though the Cuillin themselves were cut and bleeding. I haven't burned film like that for ages and on this occasion I had scouted out and found the most glorious little foreground feature to point the way toward the best mountain backdrop in Scotland. TRANSIENT LIGHT. Pentax 67II, 45mm lens, 0.6ND hard edge grad, f/22 at 20 seconds.

A favourite mountain backdrop combined with a crimson patch of sky so

rich in hue that the mountains looked like they'd cut themselves and

were bleeding. I was leading a workshop with a group of Russians at

the time I am sure they had equal success.

Simply excellent. The rough textures of the large boulders and all those lines in the rock platform make for a superb foreground, bursting with interest. And One of those times being in just the right place at the right time when it all comes together.

 

Best wishes, Dave.

I like the play of the minimal sunlight. You chose good colours to make it stand out, although I think it is overall a little too blue, but that's just a personal taste. Really fantastic foreground, and composition in general!
