Carrbridge packhorse bridge in the cairngorms

I've not posted for a little while but all for good reasons, I've just had a week in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland exploring the stunning scenery and taking advantage of the autumn colours. The first 3 days were at Glencoe, where the weather was actually quite good, even perhaps a little too mild whereas the rest of the week was around Assynt where things were a fair bit more challenging... great fun though and it's always a bigger challenge photographing somewhere you've never been before anyway.

I'd done some location planning before travelling which was well worth the time & effort as it helped me, as much as possible, to be in the right place at the right time and try to capture the fleeting glimpses of good light, especially in the more remote region of Assynt.

Anyway I'm actually posting the last photo first, probably the easiest photo of the week taken at a brief break on my 8.5hr journey back here to North Wales.... this is Carrbridge Pack Horse bridge in the Cairngorms, a beautiful ancient structure dating from 1717... I'll be posting lots more photos of my Scotland trip during the week including my favourite photo of the classic view of the Buachaille Etive Mòr in stunning autumn sunrise light.

If you’d like to see more photos of Scotland do have a browse of my photo gallery where you can buy stunning photo prints, framed photographs and canvases of the incredible landscape of Scotland and discover stunning views and the natural beauty of the Scottish scenery with images from some of the best places to visit in the area including the Quiraing and the Old Man of Storr on the beautiful Isle of Skye, Buachaille Etive Mor and the Three Sisters in Glencoe and the tranquility of Suilven in Assynt.
