Cheers for that. Got me checking the last time I was up there - 2005. A pano from 2005. Been on An Stuc in winter conditions, only had an axe at the time, went out and bought crampons the following week 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed the "path" and went down the face. f**k knows how I didn't die - was hanging onto clumps of heather and all sorts. I was a nervous wreck at the bottom. Going up is definitely preferable, though perhaps not for my pal who was trying to hold onto an over-eager spaniel as well as walking poles in the pishing rain 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 The Tour of Britain was down our way on Monday. The Movistar team were involved in a huge pileup a couple of miles back so the guy in the second pic has a braw wound on his leg. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mantis Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) Got a Highly Commended in the Scottish Landscape Photographer of the Year 2022 as well as overall winner in the Urban category. The winning images will be displayed in Bonnie & Wild in the new St James Quarter in Edinburgh (aka The Turd ). The 2021 images are still up there and on the website. There's usually a book produced too. First time I've entered this. Had to enter up to 7 images and they choose the best 3. I've probably put these up before in this thread but anyway...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I've been looking through my older stuff on Lightroom - this one was from Elgol Beach on Skye in July 2015, and is still one of my favourites. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
