Stopped at a car park for some falls on the way to Glencoe. I thought it was called Ross falls but I can't find it on the map so That is probably wrong :lol:

Got a preview from the path to the bridge. me next.

Jill wasn't too keen on this bridge. With hindsight I shouldn't have made it sway when we were in the middle.

weather was absolutely miserable in the most impressive bits of Glencoe. Gives an idea of what could be though...

Hi Robert. Great stuff even if weather was rubbish. I have wild camped next to that river at Bridge of Orchy and also walked it on another occasion as part of the West Highland way. Oh and of course flown over it! A great area indeed.

i like the last one best - it feels like I am not looking at a pic but I could actually walk right into it! Lovely

Lovely work despite the weather, Robert.

The falls look like Rogie Falls but they're not exactly on the Skye / Glencoe route.
Large detour in the general dirsction of Inverness.
They are impressive in full spate.

Super pics. You've really caught the weather up there superbly. Love the waterfall shots - they really convey the power of the water surging through there. Last one is great but I'd be inclined to crop out the oof bit bottom left.
My fave has got to be #5 though.
Really enjoyed looking at them

Super set of images Robert ... :thumbs: ... you have really caught the essence of the area very well despite the weather imgo ... :D

The Fall shot is just about spot on and is my idea of how rushing water should be captured ... :clap: ... but that is all down to personal taste ... ;)

The last shot is absolutely stunning in its clarity and sharpness ... :eek: ... except for that annoying oof bit of wall (?) in the foreground ... :shrug:
