Lochan na H-Achlaise

Of course I did. Given a nearly cloudless winter sky, utter calm and freezing temperatures I simply could not pass up a morning over at Lochan na H-Achlaise to capture the beautiful morning twilight hues. I wasn't wearing waders so I had to gingerly make my way out onto the ice to be able to frame this rock just so. I was a bit nervous about possibly breaking through but, apart from an occasional cracking sound, things were fairly solidly frozen. I used a 1.4 extender on my TS-E 24mm in order to enlarge the distant mountains to something I felt worked best in the composition. I thought that 24mm rendered the mountains too small in the image. Best viewed large on black in my opinion.

 

Cheers!
