Daylight snow pictures
Sheep eager for food on a croft in Benderloch. This image was used by
The Daily Telegraph.
Taken a few minutes after the photo above this shows sunset at the midwinter solstice looking over Tralee bay, Benderloch.
moonlit snow
The full moon shines over Loch Creran and lights up the snow in this 5 second exposure.
Another long exposure as a car crosses the Creagan bridge over Loch Creran.
The temperature was about -8C when I took these shots.

Dramatic sunset beams
Down on Tralee beach just before sunset today. I had been hoping to photo the sun's orb as it dropped below the horizon but distant cloud blocked it. Luckily, before that happened I got these shots with dramatic dark shadow beams. The CalMac ferry is heading out of Oban towards Mull on its way to the outer isles. There's also a wee fishing boat to the right. The "mirage" effect on this one is quite jolly and the seagull just happened to pass at the right moment in the second picture.
We seem to be one of the few parts of the UK without snow so far this week, but it was a chilly -5C when I took these at about 3:30pm.
