Dave took us to a lovely place on Friday morning. In the woods next to a lake but I am so bad with names and places that I have no idea where exactly, I apologise for that.
Martin and Aleksandra taking photos.
Jakov - I like the trees picture very much. You shot it in Glen Ogle Forest and the lake nearby was "Lochan na Bealach" (it doesn't really have an English name, but a translation would be "The small lake at the pass").
It might be helpful to have a list of the places we went to, around Killin.
The ruined medieval castle in the woods near Loch Tay is Finlarig Castle.
The island in the river, reached by a gate with a padlock (burial place of Macnab clan chiefs) is "Innis Bhuidhe", trans. - Yellow Island
A group went with me to woods on the far side of Loch Tay (on the Wednesday morning). That area is called Cuildochart Forest.
Several of us went to Loch Tulla, Rannoch Moor, and Glen Etive on Thursday. In Glen Etive we first parked in trees near a bridge over the River Coupal, and later we photographed the canoists at the waterfall. That river was the River Etive.
On Friday afternoon we went back to Glen Etive but first we briefly visited the start of Glen Coe. We parked in a rough area beside the road and near a large rock mountain - stopping just for 10 minutes or so - then went back a little and drove to the turn into Glen Etive, then a long way down that road. The "bicycle-shed", the yellow flowering bushes, the quiet river flowing towards the end of a fjord, and the small distant cottage beneath a large dark mountain, these were all in Glen Etive.
I hope this is helpful.
D.
