Loch Duich from River Croe Causeway to Bealach Ratagan, Wester Ross, Scotland.

Commentary.

 

From the Causeway across the River Croe stands

the sunrise-lit peak of Sgurr Mhic Bharraich, 779 metres, 2,556 feet.

To the right is the col Bealach Ratagan, taking a spectacular switchback road to Glenelg, Loch Hourn, Arnisdale and Corran.

On the southern shore of Loch Duich is the linear Ratagan village, on this clear September morning.

The stillness creates lustrous reflections of mountain, forest, village and cottage.

Only the mesmerising, pulsating call of an Oyster-Catcher breaks the tranquillity of this captivating early morning scene.
