The Old Man and The Needle

Description

Image

A very early start for =Alex37 and myself as we planned to trek the 300m ascent in predawn light to get to one of the most spectacular landscapes in the British Isles if not the world.

The Storr remained in low cloud for almost 2 hours after sunrise until the clouds broke, I decided to post my image with the Storr still in the cloud as I believe it has more of an atmosphere than when the sky did appear, unlike Alex who made much more of the light.

The shot consists of a 3 shot stitch.

Location

Storr, Isle of Skye, Scotland

I'm speechless... the place is perfect, your shot is perfect. I'd love to go there someday :)
Can i ask you for a bigger image of this to use it as a wallpaper? I won't use it for anything else, i won't share it. Just if you don't mind.
