Another superb photo, Alan :-)


Thanks, Elizabeth, but it's the scenery that makes it.

Can I ask what camera do you use?


The camera is an Olympus E-500 digital SLR. The lens yesterday was the
40-150mm zoom. This is equivalent to an 80-300mm on a conventional 35mm
camera.


When I called my husband to se it, he said it should be in a calendar
:-)


Perhaps the Finnart Ocean Oil Terminal might be interested!

Has been a bit rough here too this morning, it will be interesting to
see what the rest of the day will bring.


It's got worse here since sunrise. The lochs have been in turmoil during
the squalls with walls of spray, probably 10 metres high, roaring across
the surface. This is the worst weather we've seen in the four years that
we've lived here.
