Connel bridge- unusual view

Taken from the norh side of the bridge. This view (and others from nearby) virtually disappear in spring once the trees come into leaf. Its a few years now since the trees and bushes hereabouts were pruned and its about time to do it again as it must disappoint many visitors who want to photo the views.

It was late afternoon when i took made image and the sun had set so lighting was poor. I used three bracketed exposures and combined them using the HDR function provided in Corel PaintShop Pro.

Loch Linnhe

Looking over Loch Linnhe from Ben Lora forest, Benderloch during the recent wintry weather.

Light snowfall

Several snow showers here overnight This was the track to the beach mid-afternoon. Not a lot of snow here on the coast, but I saw a car passing through the village with several inches on it's roof so there must have been heavier falls in the hills.

Sunset

Friday Dec 18th. A day of low cloud and snow showers then at 3:30pm a break appeared just in time for a short-lived, but spectacular sunset over Tralee Bay.
