    A trio of Loch Linnhe

    I thought I should share these three images taken on our June visit to Scotland. Hopefully I haven't posted these here previously.

    #1 The Corran Ferry making its way across Loch Linnhe (giving way to a German sailor maybe) towards Corran.

    #2 Corran Lighthouse, Not quite "High" tide but... definitely "Low" cloud

    #3 Castle Stalker at low tide

    Nice captures Peter, #3 is my pick, the only thing I dont like is the green bhoy/float thingy, it keeps drawing my eye away from the rest of the image!

    I hope Peter doesn't mind me coming in with my little anecdotes about places in this area (it is/was home, after all). If you've wondered where you've maybe seen this castle before, it appears in the final scene of the Monty Python movie 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail', as "The Castle of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh".

    I do like the first one of the Corran Ferry. Captures the atmosphere of the place very well.

    Same here but if you do remove it, clone rather crop because that deep lead in makes this for me.

    Thanks all for taking time to look and comment.

    Donald please feel free to bring in the narratives they add to the story for me as well.

    I thought I would add this version of "The Castle of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh". which shows a different lead in.

    Nice images...someday I need to get across the pond to your part of the world! My parents keep going and I keep telling them they are getting old and need a Sherpa to carry their bags but they haven't taken the bait yet

    I agree about the cloning of the buoy or maybe just some selective desaturation as another alternative?

    I like the compositions in #3 and #4 very much IMO all images look a bit oversharpened.


    PS . I would also edit the sky in #3 similar to #4, it looks a bit too bright.
