First set shot on Sony A7Rii and 16-35 f4 pz - got another lot with my RX10iv which I'll add later, might be an interesting comparison

A lovely set - you say cliche's, but I'd be extremely happy to produce images like these myself. Well done.

 

[Jannyfox]

Lovely. Can't wait to get back up there. Cliches they may be but I've been trying and failing for years to get images I'm really happy with. Flat calm lochs? When I'm there? I've driven past the cottage a number of times but never in conditions to make it worth stopping. The weather witches know exactly when I'm going....

 

[KarlMa]

Yes, very nice. I have never been there, but the pictures tell me I should start planning a trip.

Hah - there's a lot of luck involved right enough! We discovered Torridon about 15 years ago and have been going 1-2 times per year since so the odd nice day is inevitable in amongst the wind and rain

Absolutely recommend it - the walk round Loch Clair and Loch Coulin is my favorite place on Earth

Cracking photies!

I think I met you on the Loch Clair/Coulin circuit. I just had my wee RX100 and wish I'd taken the A7c.

Hi Beth! Yes I think we did meet you and your gorgeous dog Skye?

 

[BethAtTheHug]

Lol! Yeah she is gorgeous and she knows it.

Some of the best Torridon shots I've seen. Marvellous reflections

Very kind of you to say so - we were very lucky with the conditions

Here's a few more shot on my RX10iv - more walkabout snaps than anything too serious
