Glen Etive

We all have special places. Those of us who take photos often go back to these places to try and find that elusive shot - that new angle. This is my place. Glen Etive is one of the most beautiful places in the British Isles.

It breaks some of my landscape composition rules. But to be honest that's what I like about this shot. I like how I can't see what's round the corner of that tree. This is a photo that draws me in, that makes me yearn, to turn my head to the right and watch the sun setting over the distant hills.

I wish I was there today.
