sky view

The beautiful west coast highlands in scotland …

The white diamond signs mark passing places on this typical single track road.

Taken on an old waterproof minolta (handy for the scottish climate!) I’ve hesitated to post this as its not great image quality. However I have a soft spot for this escapist view (bluetacked to my office wall for those ‘im outta here’ moments!)

    You might find it is a better quality than many a digital print as film resolves very well.

    I’ve always believed that d.o.f. should stand for ‘depth of feeling’ rather than ‘depth of field’.
    And this has great d.o.f. (by either definition ) – but more so the first! :) A lovely restful shot!

    I like this photo very much. The scenery is very appealing to my personal taste. I also appreciate the difficulty of shooting the planes (I live in one myself). Excellent work.
