This is a follow up to my post yesterday that highlighted a few monochrome images from my trip to Scotland this past April. This time, though, it’s a few color images I hadn’t processed previously.
The image above is a 180-second exposure of Neist Point on the Isle of Skye. This view is to the south, right at sunset. A few minutes prior, there was a rather heavy bank of clouds on the horizon (to the right — that is, to the west) blocking the sunset light. But just minutes before the sun dipped below the horizon, the bank cleared and the point was side-lit with beautiful golden light. A treat!
The images below are of a beautiful, pastel sunset from a beach near Achmelvich, Scotland. Seeing these colors — including a soft and colorful glow on the rocks — was an amazing treat. (Understatement!) A big thanks to Colin Homes for taking me to this gorgeous, off-the-beaten-path location on his photography workshop! This one is a 10-second exposure, and the lower image — which was taken from a vantage point along beach and to the left of this one — is a 13-second exposure.
The image below is from Loch Carron (as was a monochrome image from my earlier blog post, yesterday). And processed with VSCO Film, processing software that emulates the “look” of various films — in this case Kodak Portra 160. This was a 70-second exposure.
I hope you enjoy these few images from Scotland! You can see all my Scotland photos by clicking here.
