Renegade Scot Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 My first post on the site and I hope you like it. I am new to photography and been filming my journey of learning on YT. My current setup is the Sony A7ii and my only lens at the moment is the 'Tikina Firin 2.0 f/2.0' which was used to take the shot below and also a little info about the shot / trip. So last Saturday was another early start setting off at 03.30am so I could get up to Glen Lyon in Scotland for sunrise. Weather was looking fairly good and when I was not far away I could see the red and orange glow of sunrise in rear view mirror. Have wanted a good image of sunrise at the 'Praying Hands' or what I prefer to call it as 'Finnian’s Arrow'. As I sprinted up the hill so I didn’t miss the show I could see a big mass of cloud heading from West to East at about same pace as the sun rising. So typically it all went a bit pear shaped and the cloud just caught up and started to obscure the sunrise. So these are the images I got and little peeved about the pesky cloud.

Snowfun Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I actually rather like the cloud formation! I think it emphasises the light on the ground. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
