Rannoch Moor and Glen Etive.
 
I don't know if anyone else was lucky enough to be in this area at the weekend, but the weather and light were superb. I have an American visitor staying at the moment, and had meant to join him on a trip there on Friday. Unfortunately work got in the way. He went with my wife and son and had an enjoyable day. I decided to go myself on Saturday. I spent a pleasant couple of hours with my Bronica, until I realised that I had been shooting on the multiple exposure mode! It was too late to retrace my steps, so I had to come home empty handed. I checked the forecast for Sunday, and it was to be good again. I went back to the same spots and managed to expose two rolls in the Bronica. I will process them this week, and hope to have something worthwhile. I have travelled the A82 through this area several times each year since the early '70s, but have never gone specifically for photography. I can highly recommend making the trip, but care has to be taken finding safe places to stop. On both days, I arrived about 3.00 and left about 6.00 as the light was fading. It's about two hours in the car from Glasgow, but well worth the effort.

It's always a good area for photography.

Yes and I once met Alan-Breck Stuart near Rannoch Muir His accent was strange for a highlander. I asked if it was his intention to make for Edinburgh Castle but he said that his destination was the Elephant and Castle:D

It was after that version of "Kidnapped" that the SNP's rating sky-rocketed. :D
