Mountain Birch

Description

I captured this photograph at a perfectly peaceful location in the Scottish Highlands while on a family holiday. I had a brief wander with my camera early one morning in the hope of some calm conditions at the water’s edge. The light was soft from an overcast sky which complemented the delicate details and colours of late autumn. The contrasting coolness of the mountainous backdrop reflected in the beautifully still and secluded loch. I like to think that the years I have spent enjoying my local woodlands has perhaps made it easier to notice and appreciate intimate scenes within the grandeur and drama of the Scottish landscape – this photograph is an example of a scene that I hope to return to again and again as its character and colour changes with the seasons.
