Another discovered archive shot that hadn't been touched before last week, this was taken almost 2 years ago to the day so a great time to post it.

I'd slept in the car this night on the side of the Loch after shooting sunset the nigfht before, this was pre sunrise and the Exif tells me that I was up bright and early this day as it was shot at 0409 in Morning (or night depending on which way you want to look at it !)

Just as I got to the shoreline this morning an enourmous bank of mist rolled in off the mountains covering the Loch and far shoreline, as if by magic! coupled with completely still water so the boats didn't move made for some stunning shooting conditions.

It got even better when the Sun had come up which I think is why I never got around to processing this shot as I went straight for the golden light images, if anything now though I like this just as much.

I've called it 'silence' as it truly was one of the quietest places I'd ever been, you really could hear a pin drop, only the odd bird waking up to shatter the peace.
