Title: Post Sunset + 1 more
Post by: Dave (Isle of Skye) on May 29, 2023, 05:32:48 am: From a few weeks ago and shot at a new (to me at least) hidden away location, that I just happened to stumble across by accident and very happy that I did. ;D

Post by: Paulo Bizarro on May 30, 2023, 05:19:21 am: The image does not show in the thread, and when I click in the link I get an error "404" message.

Something is wrong with the forum today, because I got the same error in another thread.

Thanks again everyone ;)

I know Matt, it's unbelievable isn't it? Because I had photographed around this area many times before and thought I had totally scoured it for worthwhile locations.

So the lesson here is, never give up looking, even if you think you know an area really, really well :)

Title: Post Sunset + 1 more
Post by: Dave (Isle of Skye) on August 07, 2023, 04:45:25 pm: Hi all,

I have now written up a short photo guide to this location on my website, with several other images I grabbed from this area over the couple of days we were there, another of which is attached to this post.

So if you are in Scotland in the Morar area of the North West coast, then take a detour and go HERE (http://skyephotoguide.com/extra/Rhu/rhu.html) for a great sunset location and hopefully, you will not be disappointed.

For lots of other free location guides I have also written about in Scotland (so far), just go to the menu option at the top right of the page and click on the Extra Chapters / Free Guides (http://skyephotoguide.com/extra.html) menu option.

Cheers ;)

Dave

Well done for the photos and guide.

Thank you Francois ;)

I think the abandoned building, used to be small and probably very old croft house, that dates back several hundred years, but which was then converted into a boat house in more recent years - say 50 years ago?? But then it must have been abandoned completely and is now being allowed to fall into disrepair. Which means it is now a really fantastic subject for photography and right next to the sea.
