Leica M2 & 35mm Summicron - Fuji Sensia ISO 100

 

North west Scotland - Take the coast road around Little Loch Broom and you will find yourself in the shadow of An Teallach one of the more challenging mountains in this part of Scotland. Most climbs start from near Dundonell where there is a well trodden route to the summit however a far more scenic route begins from a lay-by further along the road at Ardessie where a stream tumbles from the mountainside in a series of waterfalls.

Howard -

 

Lovely but I think a slight to moderate increase in shadow slider would make it stronger.

A exceptional beautiful place as well, do there Salmons climb up ?

Thanks Stuny I'll give it a try. The problem is that my CRT monitor is uncalibrated and so I can't be sure that what I see is what everyone else is seeing.

 

Matthias - No unfortunately not. The stream is fed by water run off from the mountains and although is does run into the sea I'm not aware that salmon use it to spawn.

V2 - I didn't have a lot a wiggle room with the Light Room sliders as Shadows was already up to +76. I've tried to lighten the left hand side to the first waterfall and added a bit of fill light to the whole picture and then increased the colour vibrancy.
