The Tom
Here is the sunrise view from Beinn Alligin in Torridon. This is from Tom Na Gruigach looking across to Sgurr Mor and the Horns of Alligin. On the right you can see the tent and my workshop client, Marie. I took great pride in pitching the tent as close to the edge as possible, the view from inside was excellent. Overnight we had a light frost which was a bit of a surprise for August. The sunrise was a fitting end to a trip which, up until the night before, had provided relatively few photographic opportunities.
Technically (for you photo geeks out there!) this is a panorama of 5 vertical images each bracketed at -1.5,0,+1.5, so 15 frames total. I used a Canon 6D and 16-35mm f4L IS at 24mm, f11, ISO 100. I processed the RAW files in Lightroom and used PTGui to produce 3 geometrically identical panoramas for the different exposures. I used Photoshop for final contrast adjustments and flare reduction. The final image is exceptionally sharp thanks largely to the new lens! If you want a processing tutorial then I run 1-on-1s via Skype.
