The lovely St. John’s Scottish Episcopalian Church is by Loch Leven in Ballachulish, Scotland. It is a deeply Scottish Church whose history is interwoven with the whole story of Christianity in Scotland – back to the Celtic Saints like Ninian and Columba and through the Scottish Reformation and all the turbulence which followed. Pictures of the church to follow.
We came to photograph the dawn light.
A lovely evening photoshoot of Castle Stalker – Wikipedia on Loch Laich in Apin, Scotland. Our little photography group is in the first picture. Marc likes photographing walls. The rim light on the sheep is special.
The Harry Potter Bridge (Glenfinnan Viaduct – Wikipedia) and a statue to Bonnie Prince Charley on Glenfinnan Monument | National Trust for Scotland. I thought this was an odd stop for landscape photography. It is very touristy. The closeup of the statue was done with my Nikon P11000 at 1600mm. It has a ridiculous zoom! There were a few birds by the cafe.
There were birds near the running streams in Glen Etive. Glen Etive Mor is part of the stunning Scottish Highlands, is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, hiking opportunities, and the iconic Buachaille Etive Mòr mountain. The weather was lovely and it rarely rained during our two week stay in Scotland.
Spring is a lovely time of year, especially in Scotland. The new leaves pop like stars. The mosses are fresh and bright against the dark branches.
We stayed for a night at Fort William on our way from Glasgow to the Isle of Sky in Scotland. Marc is in the last photograph.

We had a marvelous time at this location in Scotland. It is a popular hiking and camping spot. We all had fun with the little green tree at the base of Buachaille Etive Mòr mountain. Map link to Glen Etive
The Coran Ferry goes across Loch Linnhe, Scotland. It is not far from Fort William. We went there early in the morning to photograph the lighthouse. We were lucky with the light.
