I think I'm becoming addicted to visiting the Ardnamurchan area...
A couple of months ago (yes I'm behind with my blog again) at the beginning of August, and for the second time, I made the long journey north to the Scottish Highlands. I was going to spend more than double the amount of time there compared to the previous year and was excited to see what opportunities I'd have.
I packed my car with a stupid amount of photography gear with a number of different photo ideas envisioned in my head... The usual camera and telephoto lens was packed, as well as a lot of kit for remote and nocturnal photography, the first time I had given it a go.
So armed to the rafters in camera gear I set off. Unfortunately the initial excitement of the journey dissipated when I reached Glasgow and hit heavy traffic, making my journey two hours longer than it should have been. Still, I had planned a short stop on the way at the Falls of Falloch (or Falloch Falls depending on which website you look at) just by Loch Lomond. Driving past Loch Lomond on the A82 is stunning. You're transformed from the city of Glasgow to forest covered hills, the vast expanse of Lomond and the winding road taking you through beautiful forest.
I didn't stay at the falls long as I was keen to get to the cottage where I was staying and get settled in, but in the interest of creating a story of my time in the Scottish Highlands and writing this blog I took the quick photo below.
