Defeat and consolation..

Headed up the 'Cobbler' (Ben Arthur) Tuesday past intent on conquering this mighty rock that looks over Loch Long and Arrochar. I had previously attempted the climb last year and was defeated by the layer of cold mist that oft decends down from high and alas was once again beaten by similar conditions with the addition of a freezing gale force wind that had me shivering behind one of the sizeable boulders that litter the ascent.I did however resolve to make the journey to a great spot at Gartocharn I had discovered online. There is a single hill in the middle of the area that commands a simply breathtaking vista. I came away feeling not so disconsolent after managing these two shots...

Ben A'an

Monday, first time hike up to the summit of Ben A'an, weather was great on the way up, good light but very hazy. Absolutely knackered by the time I got up to the peak but well worth the slog, rewarded with stunning views over Loch Katrine, Ben Venue and the Trossachs. It started to cloud up towards sun-down and didn't light up the surrounding hills they way I was hoping but managed to get a few shots I was pleased with. Need to definately make the effort to get up to higher ground more in the future! CLICK THE PIC TO SEE THE REST.....

"Stick to the road lads...."

Had a chance to test out my shiny new Tokina 11-16mm wide angle lens on Monday past. Jumped up to Rannoch moor for a wee jaunt with a good friend and fellow photographer Ross Gilmore. In the race against the dying of the winter light I managed to get  few shots of favourite haunts....
