I took an awful lot of pictures at this place, situated just off the main road to Glencoe.

Looks like a really lovely place for photographs. Beautiful scenery. I would've loved to have seen the photo of all the photographers. I love traveling around with fellow photogs. :)

The Glencoe area is seriously beautiful. I would have loved to spend a few more days there, but alas, we were on a pretty tight schedule. I'm glad we had time to get some pictures of this place, though.

I really wish I had taken pictures of the other photographers. I was about to take one of a photographer (dressed from head to toes in stylish black) as he was taking a picture of the reflection of the tree, but he got up just when I pressed the shutter. I didn't have the guts to ask him to pose for the shot, although with hindsight, I think he wouldn't have minded the slightest bit. They seemed a friendly enough bunch. One of several excellent shots I missed during that holiday. Sigh. Why is it always the missed photo opportunities that stay with one?

I'd love to go on a photography trip with you one day. If I ever make it to California...

It was peaceful, despite the fact that cars were zooming past just ten metres away. And then the photography club showed up...
