When you can’t see the wood for the freeze

Over 40 ascents of the Cobbler (Ben Arthur) at Arrochar and I found a new icicle cliff in the forest on the way up. A huge mass of ice chandeliers at the edge of the forest. January 8th 2018 Scotland.

Icicles on cliffs on Beinn Ime

This is a rock face on the north side of Beinn Ime, a mountain in Arrochar, 40 miles from Glasgow in Scotland. Traditionally every year it builds up into a mass of ice formations, shaped by the wind. Beautiful sunny day Saturday 11th February 2017.

Souper

Sometimes when I'm cooking or making something in the kitchen I'll do some before and after shots. This was the array of raw ingredients for a big pot of soup I made on Thursday. I thought the colours in the leeks were so fresh and I wanted to try combining the ingredients on photoshop. The soup was leek, carrot, parsnip and turnip with red lentils and vegetable stock. Ideal for wet winter Scottish days with buttered crusty bread. Thursday 6th March, Scotland.

This is quite possibly the best example of what draws me to the mountains. I'm lucky that I get to see these places in my country, that the majority don't know exist. Yes, it's the Cobbler and me - again. Ben Arthur above Arrochar at 2,900 ft above sea level. Scotland, November 2008. Climbing The Cobbler
