Four images of a dawn

[David Paterson]

Thanks for your comments, Mike, Akira and Mike G.

#1 is probably my favourite as well, and I included the others partly to show how the colours changed during 20-30 minutes. A few minutes after shooting #4, more clouds rose to cover the sun and the colours became totally neutral; there was no sunrise.

Mike G - I did actually say "threw on some clothes". though I have been known to wander our garden in the early morning in the manner you suggest; bare feet, too.

Excellent stuff Dave, I am taking notes...
I assume this is Loch Tay - where and looking in what direction? You know I am planning to camp on its shores in the hope of an opportunity like this one.

Thanks, Simone. It is Loch Tay - the part known as "the head of the loch" (in other words, the opposite end from where the loch is drained by a river; in this case the R. Tay). The images are looking a little north of east; the brightest part of the sky is nearly due east. The 4 shots were taken along a stretch of shoreline about 0.5km long - there are plenty of good tent sites along it.
