Photo of the Month: March 2014

Dark Donan
Eilean Donan Castle

 15th March 2014, Eilean Donan Castle

Saturday morning and we were returning from a few days in Plockton, only 10-miles from Eilean Donan Castle.  Eilean Donan is one of the most iconic castles in Scotland.  Its stunning location where three lochs meet, and with the main A87 trunk road passing within metres of the castle, means it has been photographed a million times. Today, a heavy and misty sky helped to set the mood but there was still light spilling onto the scene which created a lot of contrast.  The final image was blended and stitched from 4 overlapping frames.
