Desolate

It's amazing how the weather can totally transform a scene, this is one of my favourite locations in the UK for shooting and walking, I like to get up here in different weather to show how the scene just takes on a whole new feel, the weather this trip was extremely harsh and was snowing for the most part this day, it was pretty hard to get anything without having the element covered in snow and having to start again, just a case of keeping trying until you got blob free images, not the easiest when your trying to shoot a pano sequence...

Luckily the odd break / reduction in snowfall allowed some shots to be bagged with the tops of the mountains still visible against the darker areas of the snow filled sky.

The day after this was taken the land was far more visible and a lot of the snow had gone until it started again later i the day, this was pretty much what I wanted with the little cottage almost disappearing in the the mass of white beneath the now scary looking mountain, looking back to the shots I took here in August it is almost unrecognisable as the same place, but still the thoughts of lighting a fire in there with a decent bottle of single malt remain the same! even more so at this time of year.....
