The Photograph
Glen Etive
Hasselblad XPan 30mm
Beinn Trilleachan is a fine Corbett that overlooks the head of Loch Etive deep in Argyll. It is a steep-sided peak that gives superb views of Glen Etive, Loch Etive and the surrounding mountains of Ben Starav and the two Buachailles, Etive Mor and Etive Beag. After a steep ascent starting from sea level I summited with time to set up and appreciate the scene that lay before me. I waited patiently for the evening light to transform the landscape in the way I had hoped for when I pre-visualised the image months before.
