These remarkable rock formations at the top of Sgurr Tuath formed a perfect foreground for the view of Stac Pollaidh. The gentle sunlight lasted less than a minute so it was good that I was already set up and actually managed to take a portait oriented image before the light diappeared for good. For me this was the peak of the whole trip, incredibly dramatic cloud and the kind of soft warm light photographers dream of, thrown together with and amazing view and a great foreground. I really could hope for more. The trip to Sgurr Tuath will stay with me for a long time, made all the better by the driving rain, severe gusts and hailstorm we had that afternoon!

Absolutely stunning, man. Excellent composition; intricate details, perfect lighting. I'd love to see this printed large. What was your setup?

Thanks a lot. This is a 5DmkII and a 17-40L. F11, ISO100 and whatever shutter speed was required.

Gotta agree with Guy here Alex, one of your best and one of the most unique and perfect captures of Scotland. Excellent scene, stunning comp and exceptional light.

Jake Spain.

Light waits for no man. You're either out there, or you miss it. Forever.

Thans Andy, actually when I looked at it on my computer screen that was one of the first things I thought. I don't quite know why though!
