Winter Morning Mist by

A thick layer of snow covering the heather and trees and distant mist obscuring the view.

Taken in Glen Affric in the Scottish Highlands, a Caledonian Forest reserve area, before the sun rose on a cold winter’s morning. The Scots Pine trees in the mid-distance are probably about 350-500yr old.

Hasselblad 500CM, Fuji Acros 100 b&w film.

    Magical scene.

  • Thanks. Yup, it was like driving through a silver-grey-white/inky-blue Narnia to get there. The sort of morning where one drives away buzzing :)

    Wonderful depth and atmosphere. Glen Affric is one beautiful place at any time of year. Great shot.

  • Thanks Kevin – yup, I love that place to bits – so atmospheric. And I’ve been there when chaffinches have eaten out of our hands… sweet.

    I’m going to make sure I have some black and white handy myself this winter, PigleT, because your work has inspired me to try some B&W snow scenes. This is great.
    Cheers,
    Brett
