A lovely scene and image, Roger. Many years ago we stayed in a B&B across the other side of this Loch. We were told by our host that the German U-boat fleet were directed to come here to surrender at the end of WW2.

Despite the overcast sky.............the light is really lovely, especially where it's reflected on the water. Some lovely green tones and earthy colours in the landscape and the rocks anchor the shot very well.

Well worth viewing large..........you'll see the white crofters houses in the background and the small fishing boat too!

A super shot Roger.

Lovely light on the water despite the stormy looking sky over the hills. I like the boat on the water below your viewpoint, it gives a good sense of scale.

Enjoy your day, Doug
