Loch Etive

On a perfect early Autumn morning I found myself on the shores of Loch Etive. After a six and a half mile cycle from Inverawe I arrived at Rubha Àird Rainich to an air of absolute stillness and quiet. Surrounded by the mountains of Lorn and these pristine conditions I felt it a privilege to be alone in such an environment. Aware that these moments are rare I immediately set my camera up to capture the extraordinary scene. This was the very first frame I took as minutes later the wind picked up and the perfect reflection vanished.
