Congratulations Alan on being featured. Wonderful image. Love the castle against that moody sky. Fabulous work!!

Alan~ After I catch my breath, I want to tell you that this is one of the most beautiful photographs I have ever seen! You deserve to be bowed to, or perhaps you have already earned your knighthood?

I appreciate your comments on my sunset. I have been taking photographs my entire life, but it never occurred to me to do anything with my work, until now. A friend just told me about RedBubble, so I am only in my infancy as far as becoming a member is concerned, but I’m so glad that she recommended it to me.

I will be adding you to my favorites, without a doubt. Keep them coming. What a glorious sight that must be to witness in person, as well! ~ Hank

Thats a killer shot Mr A

Great shot – love the light!

wow…says it all for me

THIS IS AWESOME MY FRIEND! : )

Breathtaking and moody view – I should very much love to see this for myself when I return to Scotland – something I hope won’t be delayed for many more years – lol. A spectacularly good shot!

You really capture these old monuments, buildings, in a best possible way, fantastic shot. Paul :)))))

Top notch Alan, well done..

WOW! Amazing shot! Great lighting and composition! LOVE IT! Mekea :)

Powerful and dramatic image. It’s not only the setting, it’s the time of day, the broody sky and the foreground of algae left on shore by the receded tide. I also like the light touch of brightness on the green hills. I have enjoyed perusing through your portfolio. Wonderfu!

That is beautiful.

A lovely composition.

WOW

am not surprised that so many LOVE this image/pure magic

Heaps of atmosphere here…and some ghosts no doubt. ~ Anni :)

Well done, its one of the most vivid memories I have about my visit to Scotland.

It’s also very good of you to includ the history of Eilean Donan Castle too.

Well taken.

Hoping to capture a snap of this myself next year thanks for the pre-view, beautiful shot.

But – Lovely pic – you’ve got it captured how I have it in my mind. Love this pic and miss that place.

Your work is GORGEOUS Alan..!

Fantastic mood here… wow, it’s a great shot!!

Eilean Donan surely is a site and sight associated with what we all think of as the best of Scottish history. I am hoping to visit it myself and am already saving for the journey. I have to visit my heritage sometime and this would be definitely on my itinerary. Namaste, Skye :o-)

very nice !

....I want to live here…...

Awesome capture!!!

Wonderful story, and an absolutely breath taking photo!!!!!!!!

Wow that sky is SO dramatic, awesome capture and such great depth too!

That deserves more than a comment! This image is fantastic!

Absolutely gorgeous.

this is a striking photo. congratulations on your sale : )

Wonderful capture, love that dramatic sky!

I love old castles and I wish I could see and photograph some! This is such a wonderful image and shot!

Alan, I made the error of clicking on this image to comment. Wow, a lot of comments !
A wonderful image. I recall seeing this image in a UK ‘digital photography’ magazine “DIGITAL PHOTO’, was it yours? I can’t get my hands on the mag right now for reference.

Awesome shot, I have always wanted to go to Scotland. Very nice with amazing detail !!

Wow! Stunning

Absolutely stunning work! WOW!- Bea :D

I remember it well (in fact there’s meant to be a family connection to the MacRaes) but I particularly like the blues and moodiness of this.

Great shot and very evocative in this light. Wonderful work.

FANTASTIC shot Alan…love this. Very moody.

Fabulous capture….lovely coloring!

magic work, Alan!

An iconic image very well captured shrouded in magical mystery.

I didn’t think it would be possible to make this castle look better than it already does…. but you’ve done it! That sky is outstanding!
This one’s a favourite!

most beautiful image ever

HA! got a space. What a photograph!
Brooding, magnificent and steeped in wonderful history. Part of a proud heritage:-)

WOW, really really beautiful… I love the darkness, and the blue tones… Perfection

Brilliant

I can see them dragging back to the castle with blood and dirt and rain matted hair and everything that Mel Gibson did in Brave heart. Super shot!

Perfectly done in every way. A favourite for sure.

Absolutely stunning capture Alan. I am in awe of all that you have done.

Wow, such a striking photo! Well done.

This is great – moody and atmospheric. Entirely different light to what we have in Aus. Ancient buildings like this are non existent here as well. The subject matter makes my mouth water.

Wonderful work !

Awesome, Outstanding Photo

Man, you get alot of comments!! This is INCREDIBLE!!

Fab mood to this one. Well done.

the weather and timing truly capture rugged Scotland, well done

Alan, what awesome work you have. If you can call a photo an epic, this is it.

wow – what an amazing image!

WOW ! Lovely view ! Great work !!!!!

Wow you have so many comments on this! I just wanted to say this is a stunning capture. Excellent work :)

Gosh Alan, I am so glad you visited my ‘BEST FRIEND’ or I may not have had the privilege to have discovered your wonderful work. I am totally awe struck by this castle & it’s haunting beauty as it sits alone out there on the point like a lost soul, waiting for someone to come by & bring with them a love & warmth to make it feel alive again…..............Jenny.

Been there but never managed to capture it as well as this, the atmosphere in this very good…...great shot Alan

I think of nothing to describe the brilliance of this peice Alan! I’m truly floored….and utterly speechless!

Beautiful shot! Love that moody feel.

Quite an amazing image Alan, and as stated below everyone agrees !!!

Beautiful shot, Alan. Love the mood and colour.

I have a little Irish in my linage and this shot takes me back there….................Most Awesome!!

Excellent Work Alan!!

This is gorgeous – beautiful capture

Love the title…it’s perfect for this…just gorgeous!

Exceptionally painted effect, in your superb shot of the old Eilean Donan, Alan. I can hear those folkies, Capercaillie, playing in the background.

Impressive light cloud and contrast, really makes this!

And well done to Mr MacRae-Gilstrap, for 20 years of hard graft, to bring us this structure today. And also for the wunnerful surname!!

This is great Alan, excellent job.

Fabulous capture Alan! Great work.

This is sooo great, glad I found it!

Excellent work. Haunting image. Love the composition and textures.

Stunning work, Alan the moody sky and the water realy set the scene of this iconic castle.
It has been painted by thousands of artists, from around the world, I have an original watercolour of it hanging in my home,painted for me by a fellow member of our Art Club !

wow fantastic

Wonderfully dramatic and moody lighting makes this stand out from the usual touristic images.
Super

What a powerful image. I can hear the thunder rolling and the clouds moving fast like dancing.
Simply love it.

Fantastic moody image with a great history attached to it.

exquisite work. Joe

this is exactly how I’ve always have envisioned Scotland to look like….excellent capture!!

Such a dramatic capture!

I’ve never seen an image with so many comments attached .... well-deserved though.

Alan, This is wonderful and the history touching. My grandpa Fraser was born in Aberdeen and I have always had a longing to go to Scotland. This picture just makes it stronger. Thank you…

Well done Alan! I have seen many treatments of this historical site before but never in such dramatic weather and lighting conditions. Its like cinama verite – show it like it is under all conditions, not just as another picture perfect postcard.

Cheers,
Max

excellent work and title. i love it

Really beautiful captured.

What a magnificent sight!!! :)))))))) Ming

Beautiful, very dramatic skies. I would love to see this same scene at high tide with a shaft of sunlight breaking through the clouds striking the castle. I can only imagine how spectacular the scene has to be at times.

You do capture her silence beautifully! Such places calm the soul! BRAVO!!!...)o(

This is so very beautiful, Alan. My wife wants to visit Scotland and Ireland.

Alan I agree with the long list of comments. This is breath taking, beautiful and all the above.

Wonderfully moody shot – I love old castles. Of course, we don’t have any in Australia!!

Stunning! :)

An incredible shot of a well-known landmark. Excellent capture.

What a beautiful haunting shot – I painted this in water colour a long time ago – it is such a great setting but you have caught a superb stormy day for this. Excellent – where has your portfolio gone – have you cleared it out??

Such a beautiful old castle…have read a lot about this one, the history so absorbing. Beautifully captured.
Carol :0)

Excellent picture !!!

LOVE that dramatic sky – well captured.

Great capture! I love this place; I have to go back to Scotland!!!!

What a wonderful picture, love the stones that built it and it just wouldn’t be the same with a pale all blue sky. It looks like it really belongs there.

Beautiful shot and a fitting title.

beautiful shot! fantastic sky!

Oh my God! How beautiful this castle is. The moody skies simply add to this fabulous shot. I would love to come to Scotland and when I see an image like this, I am stopped in my tracks. Thank you for sharing this interesting history.

Terrific Image. This place was used in the Original Highlander Movie I think. Im drawn to it. I have a distinct feeling I may have had a life there at some point … around 1500’s is the feeling.

Fabulous shot and amazing light! wonderful image!

WOW !!!! SUPERB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the lighting is nothing short of magical. reminds me of a trip to st. andrews years back.

Hi Alan, I’ve always loved Scotland, although I’ve never been there and have no Scottish Ancestors. Just something about it grabs me. Love the Bag Pipes, Love the Lock Ness Monster, love the Scottish accent. I love watching Scottish Movies too. Your shot and it’s title is totally fantastic. This castle looks like it really is touched by heaven. Nice work in my humble opinion. My brother Den said as they used to say in the U.S. Army, “It’s one for the recordbooks”. Ed

An excellent photo. The lighting and clouds makes this an extremely mood setting piece. Great capture.

What a dramatic and wonderfully moody image, Alan!!! How I’d love to visit there!
