Windswept (catching the light)

[Dave (Isle of Skye)]

Hi all,

Here's a recent shot of mine, which I took heading towards Rannoch Moor and Glen Coe in Scotland.

It was a very windy day. But luckily for me, I just happened to be driving towards this view and saw a hole in the cloud to my left, moving a patch of light towards these two wind blown trees. And, as I had had my eye on this shot for years, I thought this could be a good opportunity to grab it.

So I parked the car, ran across the road and waited for the light to arrive, which it did. With this being the shot I liked the most.

Regards

Dave

Lovely shot Dave.

Scotland is amazing for the landscapes it offers, even more so for the ever-changing light that often, sooner than later, allows such fine possibilities as yours.

Thanks Chris, 

Yes the light here in Scotland, really can be magical - it can be wet, windy, stormy and dreich a lot of the time as well. But when the weather is changing from good to bad, or bad to good, then the light can become sublime and the atmospheric clarity, seem endless.
