A moment above Loch Etive. Calm with the clouds and mountains around.
Human influence all too obvious, from salmon fishing farms to an ugly scar of a quarry in the hillside. Sigh.

Photogrammetry meets art again.
I've liked this view of Amulree and Strathbraan Church from the Glen Quaich road for many years, but always thought it best from a slight elevation.

So the "closeup" photos are from a 3D model - 262 * 48MP = 12Gpx of source images (DJI Air3), built using WebODM, re-illuminated and rendered in Blender and finished in LuminarAI.
Wide-angle shot for context.

Standing Firm

260s in the life of a favoured characterful old tree outside Muthill.

I've made photos of this tree several times before - when I first saw it, when it still had another large bough on the far side - but this time, I wanted to make a long exposure showing the flowing clouds while the tree stands the ravages of time.

Prints, cards, masks and more are available via the website: https://shiny.photo/photo/Standing-Firm-01c36beafe1402191c581a4057b77014
