mirror calm scottish loch

My first ever post to redbubble!!

A really lucky capture of Loch Voil near Balquidder (Rob Roy country) in Scotland.

Taken on a single track road while hubby kept the car engine running with my brandnew digi pocket fuji A500 on its first day out … Untouched, this was my first ever rb post… and got me hooked!
;)))

2 preceding images that day taken around the frosty misty dawn are

dawn mist (1)




and dawn mist rising (2)


Please note there also 5 earlier images starting with ‘first light’ taken that day
if you like mist and want to see its progress above the loch

A magic day!

Taken with my fujifulm finepix A500 pocket compact on auto…

(f/8.5 1/140sec ISO100 6mm)


5 earlier images are ;


first light


early mist


blanket mist


mist tree


tree light

    I love the use of photo love your use of photographing the same thing several different times of day. What a great display you have here. I would like you to add your tech info for P101, but I am accepting it regardless because I think that taking photos of the same thing at different times during the day is an awesome teaching method of how light and environment change. Great work!

    Beautiful, Maggie! Even though this was your posted image on RB, I don’t believe this was a case of beginner’s luck. It’s more a case of discovery of latent talent. Well observed, wonderful composition and the only element of luck was being at the right place at the right time with a camera in hand.

    Don’t leave home without it ..
