Mountain Hare

From a great few hours spent watching and admiring this obliging individual on the hills of the Scottish Highlands.

They have such beautiful eyes.

Peaked mountains sit in the top third of this B&W photograph, with diagonal layers of other hills crossing the picture from bottom left to top right. The lower layer is very dark, with some small lochans catching the light from the sky and appearing as bright patches.


Red Squirrel

Nice to see a couple mooching around the woodland I use for photography workshops.

Mountain Hare

Yawning.

They don't do a great deal during the day, at this time of the year, so seeing one do this, is a good thing.

Mountain Hare

She posed beautifully for us today. From a lovely, unseasonably still day here in the Scottish Highlands. Gorgeous creature.

Crested Tit

Taking flight, after pecking out a decent sized chunk of a peanut out, to eat elsewhere.

Long-Tailed Ducks.

I got lucky with a break in the clouds late afternoon, and found a rather damp spot to lie down, to get as close to water-level as I dared.

On the Moray Firth, in Scotland.

Loch Nis
Loch Ness

This photo is very similar to my previous capture. Although, it is a different loch, and was taken 20 minutes later. There was a slight breeze this time, which was just enough to ripple the water. Consequently, the reflections were a little textured.

A slightly rippled loch surface showing a textured reflection of the snowy mountain, and the blue, cloudless sky. In the top-right of the photo a leafless tree branch hangs over the water. In the bottom left of the image are some large rocks protruding from the water surface.


Mountain Hare.

Taken whilst trying not to slide back down the hillside in the deep snow.

Such hardy creatures. The hares, not me.

Loch Shiel at Glenfinnan in the Western Scottish Highlands and another example of being in the right place at the right time to catch a burst of autumnal sunshine, highlighting the colours of the season. Sometimes, luck is on your side!
