Mark Littlejohn, a fabulous photographer who now lives on the North West coast of Scotland (not on here, I believe) has a great post in On Landscape (https://www.onlandscape.co.uk/2025/12/a-wander-down-near-garve/). "Why should my pictures be sombre replications of the world around me?" "I like to look at the end result and sigh happily. To look at a finished image with a smile. Knowing that I’ve managed to replicate what it was that I saw in my mind's eye when I took the original image."
