It was a wonderful scene to behold, but couldn't get it all in one shot, so photomerged 2 shots. The light was just amazin this day.
A two image stitch of the Three Sisters, taken on a Canon EOS 80D. A normal wide angle lens will only get two of the sisters in shot.
The highest mountain in the old county of Argyll, Bidean nam Bian is the whole majestic range of mountains on the south side of Glen Coe. It's dramatic northern ridges are known as the Three Sisters, whilst the highest summits of the group are hidden away behind.

I discovered a beaver dam nearby when I took a different route along the river. Incredibly still morning.
Typical weather for a weekend milky way photo shoot trip. Happened the last two years. We will get about 5 good shots and then the clouds and rain move it. Still like the way this looked.

Three Sisters Wilderness, Oregon.
When it was still dark, they stood against the sky, proud and solid. Their presence is a reassuring anchor on a misty sea. If they fear anything, they don't let it show. They are the horizon of the world, as strong as stone, as fragile as an avalanche. And when light beams through the lodgepole pines to kiss the rising steam of the lake, their faces look down on the aspect of it all. Faces chiseled in stone and ice, somehow stern and somehow soft, they are ageless. When people named mountains, they named these the Three Sisters... Faith, Hope and Charity. I have three sisters, two by blood and one by Raksha Bandhan (Rakhi). Their faces are chiseled in a place I can close my eyes and conjure when I wish. All three possess those qualities, all three could be named as these. But they are not. They are Peggy, Patti, and Renetta, and this one is for them.
Title not my own work, was suggested to me which I liked so pinched it with permission.
This lone tree clings on high up the slopes of Beinn Fhada.
Isn't nature incredible.

Three Sisters, Strength of Community, A Large Floor Design
A design originating from the floor or from a base platform on the floor.
Typically, large and tall.
This is another composition at sunrise of the Three Sisters Peaks at Policeman's Creek in Canmore, Alberta. The warm sun ray on the sister peaks, clear sky with a touch of cloud and the mirror-like reflection are all great elements for a successful landscape shot.
One more from Mahone Bay, this time just the Three Sisters. I couldn't resist the wavy clouds in the sky with that promising hint of blue, which sadly failed to materialize any further that day.
Mahone Bay is a bay located on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, Canada along the eastern end of Lunenburg County.
Opening south directly onto the Atlantic, its eastern shore is formed by the Aspotogan Peninsula and its western shore is formed by the First Peninsula (of Lunenburg). The Chester Peninsula juts several kilometres into Mahone Bay at roughly its midpoint.
The bay's geological history differs from its eastern neighbour, St. Margarets Bay, in that Mahone Bay shows a greater variety of soils and bedrock. Numerous glacial drumlins on the western shore near the towns of Mahone Bay and Lunenburg have resulted in small-scale farming operations.
Mahone Bay also differs from St. Margarets Bay in that it is dotted with innumerable small and medium-sized islands throughout its waters. The shelter provided by these islands, along with the summer southwesterly flow, led to the scenery around Mahone Bay becoming a tourist attraction in itself. Today the towns of Chester and Mahone Bay have become a destination for cruising in pleasure yachts. A scenic provincial park at Graves Island just east of Chester is a popular camping destination.
The view across the harbour of its three prominent churches (Anglican, Lutheran, and United) has appeared on many postcards and calendars.
The three bottle ovens (so-called because of the iconic shape) on the corner of Bournes Bank and Enoch Street in the centre of Burslem are the last vestiges of what was once the Acme Marls works, manufacturers of kiln furniture for the pottery industry. They are thought to be the last surviving examples of down-draught kilns remaining in the City of Stoke-on-Trent, the centre of the UK pottery industry for three centuries. The company was founded in 1932 by Lt.Col J.W.A.Lovatt and his brother making saggars, kiln cars, pernettes and other refractory supports on which pottery is stacked during firing. . . . . . And for those of an enquiring mind, a saggar is a kidney shaped tub made from fireclay about 60cm long, 40cm wide and 30cm deep into which the raw clay pots such as plates, cups and saucers, bowls, teapots etc are stacked on pernettes (little separators or stilts) for firing. Which gives rise to a very British employment occupation, the 'saggar-maker's, bottom-knocker's mate'. Producing saggars to the correct specification was a skilled job and needed a craftsman, the saggar-maker. However making the base of the saggar required less skill and could be left to a lesser craftsman, the bottom-knocker. He made the base of the saggar by placing clay in a metal hoop and knocking it into shape. In turn, he had a mate to help him prepare the clay, clear up the mess and make the tea. So very obviously he was the 'saggar-maker's bottom-knocker's mate'! The Three Sisters in Burslem were still being fired until 1977 and are now Grade II listed. In 1985 the company changed its title to Acme Projects and in 2000 concentrated the business at the Tunstall works. The Burslem site was sold off and is now abandoned and overgrown. Acme Projects Ltd continued in the ownership of the Lovatt family until 27th August 2019 when it was finally dissolved. Taken with a 1976 Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera Alpha 1 on Polaroid (TIP) film
Here's to those still mornings. What better way to spend them than with the three sisters. Er, I guess Six Sisters in this case!
Taken with a Canon 5D IV, 24-70 f/2.8L ii, LEE landscape polarizer and a 2 stop ND grad (soft edge). Processed in Camera Raw and Photoshop.
Another view over the Three Sisters and Jamison valley at sunrise.
It's a view of which I never tire.
Taken in Canmore, Alberta, Canada. It was a mostly cloudy day, but caught a break in the clouds to shoot this before it was too late, as the sun was going down behind the Rocky Mountains.
One can walk to a small bridge and directly onto the Three Sisters rock formation. The view offered from this point is very nice.
Soon after this 5-frame pano was taken, the clouds blocked the sun.

Excerpt from dundaswest.museum:
The Three Sisters – A tribute to the First Nations Communities in Ontario, is located just east of Dundas and Sheridan on the north side and depicts the teachings of The Three Sisters story.
This is the name given to three agricultural crops: maize, climbing beans, and squash, which were grown together, using an agricultural technique called companion planting. The Haudenosaunee (Iroquois), among other indigenous people, showed settlers how to plant them in order to subsist on the land.
Here the sisters stand surrounded by the leaves and blooms of their respective plants against a vibrant blue background. A medicine wheel is featured in the centre of the composition providing visual interest and a burst of warm colour. The mural was created in collaboration with educators from First Nations communities. This exchange was a valuable experience for the artists.
Three Sisters is a landmark along the N1 in the Karoo National Park and is situated about eighty kilometres to the northeast of Beaufort West.
