Mirrored Mist at Kilchurn Castle
Lens: SMC Pentax-D FA 645 55mm F2.8 AL [IF] SDM AW Camera: Pentax 645z Photo Location: Loch Awe, Agyll,Scotland 
Posted By: unkipunki, 11-21-2014, 04:43 PM

Got some clear weather in the early morning earlier this month and got up to the other end of Loch Awe from where I live. It's a very heavily photographed location but I think the 645z adds something to the lexicon of images of Kilchurn Castle

A fantastic picture...
I don't know what's doing that, but a 645Z picture is still a 645Z picture... even at web size...
Plus, there are the fantastic light and your skills.
Loch Awe indeed...

What they said. It almost seems that areas of the reflection are sharper that the actual scene.

Breath taking... i can hear the wailing of the pipes echoing down thru the centuries, and picture the souls of Scots from around the world coming home to their Highland hills... Truly one to hang on a wall!
