CAPTURE NEW HORIZONS

After traveling up the A9 to Inverness and stopping for a coffee we crossed the bridge over the River Ness onto the Black Isle.  The city was back lit with a slight mist and the church spires above the tops of the houses. The image was shot on the Fujifilm X-T2 and the XF100-400mm. We pulled into a parking bay at the side of the dual carriageway opposite the port to take a few images before continuing our journey north towards Lochcarron and then onto our next stop on the River Kishorn before making the climb through Bealach na Ba (Pass of the Cattle).

A short walk around Cromwell Harbour earlier this week netted me some great colour and reflection shots.   The boats are now being put back into the water after they were lifted out for the winter and some have received a lick of paint to provide a colourful backdrop. Cromwell Harbour is the oldest of the two Dunbar harbours and is named after Oliver Cromwell who enhanced the anchorage at Dunbar to use as a base of operations during his invasion of Scotland in the 17th Century. I used the Fujifilm X-Pro2 with the XF100-400mm to isolate parts of the colourful scene or I fitted the 18mm f2 lens to give an overall shot of the harbour and the town of Dunbar behind. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE SUPPORT THIS BLOG BY VISITING THE ADVERTISERS ON THIS PAGE By clicking on the adverts you are helping support this blog - thank you. ...
