Fairy Glen, Rosemarkie (updated after rain)

My first time at this location today and stupidly didn't take a tripod with me! Some of the better shots below.

No1 is surprisingly sharp without a tripod.

No2 definitely my favourite. Beautiful composition. Mossy bolder in the foreground nicely balanced with the rockface. Same goes for the negative space of the water with the autumnal foliage. Nice work; like it a lot.

Visited 4 days later after we'd had a bit of rain, but not the torrential stuff others have had.

Not so good after the rain, there's too much water and you lose all the little streams of water in the falls.

Very interesting to see the before and after shots though.
