Beautiful scenery - one I'd like to bag until I read Scottishlandscapes remark!
Lovely light in the sky harmonising with the mountains and hillsides.

Paul.

Lovely shot of an interesting landscape. Historically the area shows classic rotational land slip of tertiary basalt flows overlying weaker sedimentary Jurassic formations! Captured most beautifully by a very good photographer.

Have stood there twice this year and it's been a pea-souper both times!! - lucky you!

Great shot well done.
