How unique and what an otherworldly ambience.

I was here four weeks ago on a ridiculously sunny day

We almost did not see the sun on our trip to Iceland

We had two days of sun. Personally I prefer it under cloud. The same in the highlands of Scotland

Im planning to go to the highlands of Scotland too, i really want to shoot The Storr

Ok. Well the midges will still be around in September
Not too bad on Skye but can be bad in the highlandsΒ
Also, hopefully the tourist season will have started to slow down
but it will still be busy.
I get excited just thinking about going. It's amazing there.Β
Im taking two people to Glencoe in May. Looking forward to that

I dont think I will have time that trip.
It is not actually going to be a phototrip, but we are 5 childhood friends who are going on a whiskey trip celebrating that we are 40 years next year.
But i am planning to go a couple of days before the others, so i can spend those days photographing

Much welcome, as always.
A tiny thing struck me when the impression had sunken in a bit better: the contrast on the hut's very front could be (for me), a tiny bit lower. Just in this one photo. Maybe it's due to the tones of natural browns combined with white, and I remember what you said about exposure time and contrast, but the "character" of the hut in its surrounding would sink in even more if it was a little less hard. (This is what "my inside" says).
Apart from that, it's of course still great.Β

I can agree that the contrast on the hut is on the limit.Β
The contrast of the whole shot is about the same, but I have added extra sharpness to the hut and the grass to make that an eye catcher.
In contrary to the background which I have softened just a bit.
But it is done with purpose. I seldom overdo the contrast and sharpness but on this particular shot i felt the added sharpness gave the hut some extra eerieness

Oh, I never doubted that you had reasons to do it the exact way you have done it and that you know what you're doing.

Brilliant!
I like how the lights give a focus on the house and the color green.. Pleasing to the eye π

What a great find, I imagine some old bearded guy coming out and offering you an invitation to join him for a drink inside, and then...

Nice format. The perfect angle to catch the waterfall in the background.
I gotta try to paint this.

This is so lovely!! Man, I love the atmosphere and the aura of it, so spooky and yet very pretty, perfect for fall in my opinion. A gorgeous shot!
