UK - Scotland - Morning Light at Glen & Loch Etive
Glen Etive (Scottish Gaelic: Gleann Eite) is a glen in the Highlands of Scotland. The River Etive rises on the peaks surrounding Rannoch Moor, with several tributary streams coming together at the Kings House Hotel, an old inn on the A82 road at the head of Glen Coe. From the Kings House, the Etive flows for about 18 km, reaching the sea at the sea loch of Loch Etive. This river and its tributaries are hugely popular with whitewater kayakers and at high water levels it is a testpiece of the area and a classic run. At the north end of Glen Etive lie the two mountains known as the shepherds of Etive: Buachaille Etive Mòr and Buachaille Etive Beag. Other peaks accessible from the Glen include Ben Starav, located near the head of Loch Etive, and Beinn Fhionnlaidh on the northern side of the glen. A narrow road from the Kings House Hotel runs down the glen, serving several houses and farms. This road ends at the head of the loch, though rough tracks continue along both shores.
Same place but very different time of a day than this (currently my most interesting shot according to Flickr) http://www.flickr.com/photos/-lucie-/2820749004/ with deep colors that are created by late evening sun. It is quite incredible how same place can look so different. Photo taken in full color more.
Btw, I've just got to know the great news - this shot was shortlisted in Landscape Photographer of the Year 2009 (together with this one http://www.flickr.com/photos/-lucie-/3725688585/ ) Keep the fingers crossed for me !!
