TRIP TO ISLE OF KERRERA 29TH MAY

decided to visit the island of kerrera so travelled light i.e camera bag, snacks and water.

got a few unusual pictures though.

The first one shows a great example of a Basalt Dyke running NW/SE like a wall and can be seen beneath the hutcheson monument on the north west side. In the foreground you can see

a lump of old red sandstone conglomerate which is a common feature of the island.

RAINY EVENING SUTHERLANDS GROVE 25th May

Slightly dryer so visited nearby Sutherland's Grove,nice overcast pushes out the colours within

this dark forest walk.Also the low light enable one to use very slow shutter speeds for water

flow.And guess what,the sun popped out just for a brief moment and I was able to get

this nice shot.

We then carried on to the upper glen and down steep steps to cross the footbridge over gorge.

Here is my favourite shot of the evening.

RAINY DAY LIGHT DRIZZLE 25TH MAY 09

On a very still day with light drizzle you can still get some nice images.so using my Canon with a Canon macro lens I spent some time around Benderloch taking some shots.My Lens has a deep lens hood which keeps the rain off.

Here is one of the shots I captured using a 2 second delay with the camera on a sturdy tripod and an exposure of around 30Th/sec at F22.

After 35 years as a full time working professional I still have a great passion for photography.

Here we have crystal beads of water reposing on the vegetation.

TONYS TRIP TO EILEAN DONAN 26TH MAY09

Using the same forecast for sunshine showers my Son and partner Tony set off with his

friend from Nashville to visit Eilean Donan castle on Loch Duich.

After a hike up the hillside Tony got this shot of the castle using a Canon EOS1Ds Mk2 with

a canon 28-135 zoom lens with a neutral grad filter.

He later went on to Plockton on loch Carron.

Here is one of his pictures
