Loch Achtriochtachan Summer Evening, Glen Coe, Scottish Highlands.
Driving home one evening from Glasgow, after a a holiday in Corsica, this scene begged to be photographed ! A gorgeous Summers evening, when all things seem to be at peace with the world !
However, encounter Glen Coe on a day when the weather is as wild as can be, and you will experience the very sombre mood and brooding atmosphere that is ‘The Glen of Weeping’.
The name of the lochan is a spelling nightmare !!
Shot on a Canon EOS 20D, with polarising filter attached, mounted on tripod, f22, for front to back sharpness, RAW file processed in Photoshop CS3.
