    Absolutely love that location, if nothing else because of how easy it is to get to. Always seems to deliver and you really did the place justice John. Lovely mages.

    John, what a wonderful mid-week treat! Beautiful! Thank you for this bonus video! In the earlier shots, when the mist on the mountains was more dense, I admired how you were able to pull some detail out of the near mountain top and yet keep the gauzy mist still misty. Amazing shots. Thank you. Jim.

    Lovely video John. I was glad to see one of the photos picked up the red rock in the water. I've been at that spot so many times in all seasons. There are some lovely wee heather clumps growing near the waters edge that make a good foreground in the Autumn. I was in the Glen twice last week it was so quiet, hardley any folk about. Just wondering where your next destination was, 😁Thnk you .....Alioban 💖

    • @JohnMcKennaPhotography
      @JohnMcKennaPhotography  6 днів тому

      Thanks! I'm back up that way in 2 weeks so will probably re-shoot this spot again. I was staying over in Fort William, so planned to head out towards Arisaig for sunset but only got as far as Glenfinnan. The work in the car park at Glenfinnan ruined my plans for that spot so I headed back to Corpach before getting to the hotel.

    Very nice photos John, really looking forward to getting back over to Scotland from Ireland some day. I see stena offer a decent deal for same day return ferry, might be worth a look.

      Thanks Ian! Weirdly I'm looking at the same deal, but in the opposite direction.
      I haven't shot the Antrim coast for a few years and been hoping to get back over soon.

    Great shots John, at a classic location. Enjoyed watching this, this morning. Was wondering if it would be possible to make a vid showing your editing process of one of these shots, from uploading the RAW to the completed image. Always fascinated to see the editing process and how final images are achieved. Really useful learning tool aswell.

    • @JohnMcKennaPhotography
      @JohnMcKennaPhotography  3 дні тому

    Beautiful work John. The pictures were amazing. Sorry about the tripod but im sure you will find a good brand new one. Get a solid one so you can take pictures and fight bears at the same time LOL 😂 Greeting from Mexico.

    A new tripod oh no😀I bent a leg on my one after a fall but managed to repair it phew😀Great shots again though I actually liked the slower shutter speed one on the water I think that’s when you had the polariser on.

    • @JohnMcKennaPhotography
      @JohnMcKennaPhotography  5 днів тому

    Hi John,
    As always, great video and weirdly superb timing as well because, weather depending, I'm travelling up there next week after I finish work on Friday for a car-camp weekend whilst Ebony is away visiting family in Norfolk. I really do need to scratch that Glencoe "honeypot" itch. Inspiring stuff and all tech comments noted :-D

    • @JohnMcKennaPhotography
      @JohnMcKennaPhotography  2 дні тому

      Thanks Neil. What day's will you be in the glen? I'm back on 18th, 19th and 20th.
      Tomorrows video, assuming I can get the edit finished tonight, will be from another Glencoe spot!

      All being well, I'm heading up to Glencoe after work on the 14th, car-camping overnight to get early morning light through Glencoe from Beinn a' Chrulaiste and then hitting a few of the honeypots during the day. If I do another night (quite likely) then I'm considering doing the Pap of Glencoe on the Sunday morning. All "ifs and buts" as I'll be very much at the mercy of the good ole weather 😀
