Dunottar Sunrise

Dunottar Castle, Stonehaven, Scotland. This is probably my favourite shot I have taken of Dunottar castle and as usual it is all down to the quality of some extremely transient blood red light that flickered over the castle shortly after sunrise. At the time I was with some Russian friends and having achieved a few shots of sunrise behind the castle I ran back the other side and gulping down oxygen set up on the other side of it. Purple flowers made a nice foreground fringe for the grass banks then the delicate pink sky with violet clouds and lastly that sumptuous light. Just heavenly.. Pentax 67 II ,55-100 zoom,Fujichrome Velvia Partially polarised, 0.6ND grad, f/16 at 4 seconds.

Dunottar Castle at stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, Scotland on a rare and

beautiful summer morning. The light was extremely transient flickering

across the ramparts like blood. Nice place for vampires perhaps.

Hi Ian,

Thanks for your comments. Veeery beautiful and haunted image. The colors and the contrast are outstanding.

I happen to be in Scotland at the moment, staying with at a friend in Edinbourg. Scotland has that something special. And your image has that fair-tale like quality that make it stand out.

All the best
