This was my second sunrise in Glencoe and my luck was in again. I'd checked the sun position and realised that there was a chance of some morning side light falling on Buachaille Etive Mor from in front of Langangarbh Hut, often called the Wee White House. I arrived in plenty of time and checked out a few potential compositions, I really liked the idea of using the river Coe as foreground interest so with wellies on my feet I wandered along the shallow river looking for a good view with a nicely framed Buachaille Etive Mor with the Wee White House in the shot. I tried 2 different spots, both close to each other, but this is the one that's my favourite. I setup the tripod, sorted the settings, and waited patiently to see if the sunrise would work its magic. The first 15 minutes after sunrise on the Buachaille just saw it shrouded in cloud but suddenly a break happened and just for a few fleeting minutes the gorgeous soft light of sunrise lit the flanks of Buachaille Etive Mor and cast some light onto the Wee White House too....I couldn't have asked for any more on a first photography visit to this fantastic location, what a wonderful morning in Glencoe
