Went for a drive up to glencoe today and took a few pics. was amazed at how still the water was in the pics, everyone seemed to be stopping to take pictures. shot a few rolls of 120 aswell so looking forward to see how they turn out compared to these ones.

not sure where this one was


this one is from loch lomond

We drove past Loch Lomond a few weeks ago and I thought the water was still then. Certainly nothing like it is in your pics though. Cracking shots...well done.

It's been eerily still down in Edinburgh today as well. Wish I'd been up there though, those are lovely photos.

It's Rannoch Moor isn't it?

Looks like it, on the long stretch, with the water to the left...

Cool, that water is amazing smile I find myself in Scotland about once a fortnight at the minute, not normally even overnight though frown

Yup. Before it curves up and back around to give you another stunning view. In fact, I've got a batch from a couple of years ago I keep meaning to stitch into a panorama from more or less the same place. There's a little road off to the right that I suspect the OP might have stopped in to get out and take those biggrin

yeah, the bit with all the long straight stretches. I just caught a look at the reflections when i was driving along and found a place to stop and got my feet soaking walking to the edge of the water.

I like your loch shots, but this one's just average... middle of the road at best.

This was from the garden of a B&B (despite the attentions of rather a determied bunch of midges) at Glencoe
