Great set, the reflections are spot on

Of all of them the second is my favourite - I love the subtlety and it's quite different from your "usual"...

 

[andyscott]

3 is delightful, amazing tones

 

[Dale.]

You certainly like your reflections Steve. A very nice set and it's not easy to pick a fave but I think the 3rd image edges it.

I had meant to go up at midnight Friday past but I don't think it woud've been this calm and that's why I didn't go.

 

[dazhol]

WOW. These have inspired me to get out. Can I ask... In 2&3 what filter did you use? What were your settings? Where do you focus in the image?

 

[viv1969]

Beautiful set Steve...no less than I'd expect.
But Jesus, that third one is amazing.
Literally took my breath away.

For exif just click on the image link on Flickr. IIRC only filters would be a soft edged natural density grad filter

 

[Lemaildetom]

Not the first time I see your post. You always get some really cool reflection steve!

 

[SFTPhotography]

Cheers all. Reflections is easy, just head out when it's not windy and at the start or end of each day. I tend to check forecasts regularly as reflections are, as important, to me as the light quality itself.

Excellent photography

 

[BKphotography]

Number 3 is a great shot.

 

[sarahhj]

Great set. No.3 is the winner for me.

 

[Stuart Mc]

Great set as per Steve, have to say number 3 is my favourite, lots of atmosphere

 

[MrDrizz]

The reflection in the 4th picture looks surreal with the mountain and the rocks in the water.

 

[TrishR]

Gorgeous set, the 3rd I really love

 

[trevjm]

We are off on a tour of Scotland mid September through to October staying at Glencoe, Loch Ness, Isle of Skye, Perth, Loch Lomond etc. Your quality of photos are just the sort I am dreaming of producing whilst we travel around. Thanks for sharing. I love them all especially the "Lagangarbh Hut". nice one.

 

[Ulfric M Douglas]

Number 3 for me, and I normally dislike the bluey greens but this one is suited to the limited colour palette and apparent colour shift.
A big framed print would looks awesome!

 

[Neil Burnell]

Lovely set Steve, love the 3rd.

 

[alfbranch]

Great as usual Steve
3rd closely followed by 5th for me.

I'm glad you mentioned the 5th. It's my favourite image I've taken all summer followed by the Kilchurn shot

 

[John wells]

Nice shots,lovely colours in the main but don't like number 2 I'm afraid, doesn't pop like the rest, rather flat

I think the LPOTY panel felt the same. I entered in. No shortlisty for me....

 

[Paul Cronin]

You still have SLPOTY

 

[tomh1982]

Lovely set I particularly like the Torren Lochan shot.

Shortlisted last year. BLPA commended last year, will enter both.

Lovely set I particularly like the Torren Lochan shot.

Thanks, glad you said so it is my favourite image of the set
