Wonderful Glencoe again, this was between very heavy rain
so it gave a lovely moody photograph. I just love the heavy rain clouds down over the Buachaille Etive Mor the wonderful conical mountain that dominates the entrance to Glencoe. The overcast lighting seemed to emphasise the red sandstone rocks.

7 raw images into Photomatix pro then some tweaks in Nik colour effects pro.

Lens @11m

Once again, picture/photographic quality is outstanding.
Nice one Douglas.

Best regards, Daniel

hi douglas.
it's a pity that the weather didn't hold out for you.

the clouds on the mountain are moody and the harbingers of a storm. the red sandstone is warm and vibrant.

we need to make a date and head up there.
