Gone but not forgotten - Perthshire - Scotland

My 2000th post +1 Dang !! Arithematic was my strong point too

This shot was taken at my Loch Eigheach campsite for the night, I couldn't help but be drawn to a series of dead trees, why did they die ?

My only conclusion I could make that the loch itself is dammed for Hydro electric purposes, as I was fully aware the Loch rises and falls dramatically, at times beyond the tree line, over time I imagine the soil, rich in nutrients has been washed away, replaced by silt and sharp sand.

Photographed June 27th 2006

Thanks for looking and putting up with me for the last 11 months

Nice photos you've got there. Congrats on 2001 posts

Awesome pictures.

Nice work, Scottie. In particular, the second one is superb.

Great shots Scottie. I love the look of dead trees as well and this one is particularly well captured. Great sky too.

Nice shots, indeed. I have great empathy for the mathematically challenged, of which I am 2.

The first is very nice Scottie _ good job.

Great shots Scottie, really like the colours and comp of No 1.

I bought a set of Lee ND grad filters but have a real problem seeing where the cross over point is, just can't seem to get it in the right position.... justy have to keep trying I guess!!

The second one for me is very effective in B&W. Congratulations on becoming gold, and see you on sunday.

Amazing both!

You'd score the maximum amount of points for the second one if I were to judge!

Congratulations!

I love the first one....the sky is awsome.

Thanks folks

Congratulations on 2K Scottie Truly a Golden Oldie now

Lovely images to celebrate with too.

Beautiful. Number 2 is cracking - just made for B+W.

Thanks for sharing them.

I could be wrong, but I think your 2000th post might have been on a thread that I started - my first photo post on the forum. If so, I'm honoured! Thanks for your kind comments.

Every shot that I see from Scotland just makes me want to go there more. The first one looks like something right out of Middle Earth. And I mean that in a non-cheesy way
