Afternoon all. A run up to Loch Lee this afternoon. The rain clouds in the distance soaking the lower half of the glen.
I wanted this clump of heather in the shot. Remembering my mishap with heather, in Glencoe a couple of weeks ago, I carefully climbed down the bank and rocks. Got down safely - my camera and tripod however, did not!!!!! Had left the tripod and camera sitting on bank till I got down. Crash, down they followed me, narrowly avoided landing in the water. Tripod head is now broken, and the attachment bit for the flash on the camera, now has a wee bent bit on it
. I hate purple heather

Have been missing recently, but will try to catch up over the next few days.

That's an excellent low pov, and lovely composition, Moira. The grey water matches the dramatic sky and they provide a wonderful contrast for the bright land. The vanishing point is on a third intersection, and the image is topped off with a beautiful clump of lucky purple heather.

The dramatic clouds are heightened by the splash of purple from the heather in the fg Moira, lovely.

You seem to be ill fated with heather but this is a great POV even though it turned out to be an expensive one. Lovely depth, nice composition.
Oh dear, Moira, I thought purple heather was supposed to be lucky! I guess you'll be avoiding it in future...
A beautiful scene, though, and very nicely captured ![]()

I didn't read the caption yesterday morning Moira, I'm s sorry about the mishap, must have given you a fright, but you didn't get hurt again which is a blessing.
