Another one of Castle Stalker:


The Buachaille with Coupall River:

I see that you have returned to Castle Stalker...
And you have also been to take that shot of Buachaille Etive Mor I could not find the time for. I have to go back for that one...

stunning images - I am enjoying them all

I have to go back for this one too:

I see that you have returned to Castle Stalker...

This was when we were there together.

I've prepped some jpegs but I don't know if I dare show them, with everyone posting such amazing work. Scotland certainly seems to have got the creative juices flowing, and my "standard landscapes" begin to look a little tired.

I will post them, if only because there will be some information (correct names for example) which may be useful.

  1. At the lodges. The woods right beside our 3 lodges.
  2. Beinn na Chruilaste - where Glen Coe and Glen Etive meet.
  3. Bluebell, Cuildochart Forest - where a number of us went on Wednesday morning.
  4. Coiletir Cottage - beneath the large mountain at the bottom of Glen Etive.
  5. Glen Ogle Forest - where some of us went on dull, cold Friday morning.
  6. Falls on the River Coupal - we stopped here twice and parked in trees beside a bridge,
  7. River Coupal (2) - shot in the last moments of sunshine from that bridge.
  8. Canoist - River Etive
  9. River Etive (2) - near where it meets the waters of the fjord.
10. Storm damage - Glen Etive.

OK you must have pumped up the exposure then.

Not at all Dave, your images always set the standard for me.

This is how I saw Castle Stalker

Good we have this thread to share the memories of a wonderful
week. Hope to see many of us old and new at Photokina.

Jan Anne arriving at Edinburgh airport, eager to take on Hebrides and Scotland.

[Frank Fremerey]

Finally safe home, backup made, starting to sort, delete & edit. Never did serious action before, nor tele and the D500 / 200-500 as a new tool.

A grand day out:
1) Explorers (Simsurace, Bez, Simato)
2), 3), 4) people on the beach
5), 6), 7), dogs playing
9) Bez tired, Frank shooting, Simsurace reflecting, Simato approaching
10) landscape impressions

[Frank Fremerey]

continued:
1) Simato running to catch the best light
2) landscape impressions

I don't remember what I did, but I like the result

[elsa hoffmann]

No need for me to have been there - I am experiencing Scotland thru several eyes 
Probably much better than my own anyway !
