Elgol Moodscape

I thought it only right and proper to share the other side of Skye (the we dont often have sunny days here Skye) this image was captured about 10 hours prior to Elgol 50 which allows for some compare and contrast. The shot is slightly further up the beach but in essence it is the same view (just a little tighter) the mountains had been drifting in and out of cloud - but on this occasion i liked the fact that you could see just the hills and cloud obscures the rest of the view. The challenge here was keeping the lens dry.... Enjoy

  3. Excellent. A I age I am becoming more attracted to mood and less to bling in landscapes. This ticks boxes.

    1. with you there Rachael publishing less as I raise my own standards – tending to blog stuff, I have tried something different with – closer to home this limits to outstandingly different lighting conditions but further afield I (due to travel costs) I have to take what I can get.

  10. That’s terrific Scott! I would enjoy some of that mood here where it’s almost always a nice sunny day practically to the point of monotony.

  13. I have only ever had one clear spell at Elgol….but I will try again more in hope than expectation! Just glad I have good Gore-Tex. The ghosted image of the hills is just fine.
