Loch Bhraoin - Loch of Rain Showers. Scotland by

A view along the valley towards Loch Broom (Scottish Gaelic: Loch Bhraoin, loch of rain showers) is a sea loch located in northwestern Ross and Cromarty, in the former parish of Lochbroom, in the west coast of Scotland. The small town of Ullapool lies on the eastern shore of the loch. Alternatively, the reference to broom is thought to be derived from the spreading yellow gorse.

    Never heard of it but a lovely place. I see the weather still looks unsettled. Lovely view through the valley.

  • Cheers Eddie, it’s in the Torridon area of the Highlands, stunningly beautiful part of Scotland!

    Aptly named for a Highland loch, though almost all could carry it.
    Great image David, I see you missed the mist on this one.

  • Loch of Midge Showers would also suit most Scottish lochs!
    Thanks David, this was taken as we headed back to the East where the cloud had stayed all day!

    very nice photo with lots of atmosphere. I assume it is HDR. Am I correct?

  • Thanks very much Gary. Sorry but your assumptions are wrong! It is however two images blended together and all done in ACR and Photoshop!

    I like the light and the green colors of the valley in this beautiful scenery and it’s a dramatic sky too. An excellent shot.

  • Thanks very much for your kind appraisal Steen, pleased you like the image.
