Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
Cracking photo that last one Gary. I've had to sleep in one only the one time and was not impressed by the experience, but they are an efficient shelter when all is said and done.
great pics...thanks for sharing those. even looking at the pics makes me feel cold...but that last shot with the fire is stunning. thanks...
It looks so spectacular it could easily be mistaken for Buachaille Etive Mor, or even the other way around.
The first two shots were taken handheld on my Canon G10 compact and the last one on my 5D set up like this.
The last picture is take in much the same way as I take most of my "Bushcraft" shots.
I set the camera up on a tripod, in this case with a weatherproof cover, and leave it to take pictures at regular times with an intervalometer.
That means I can just get on with what I'm doing and then sort through all the shots taken later to see if there is anything usable.

that last pic is awesome! thats like'vist scotland' or something, amazing. could just see it on book cover on the subject.
Which explains how I couldn't work out where you were quinzhee(ing?)...whoops!!
Cheers for that Wayland.
I finally got around to shopping up the shot I got in the morning.
I'll put the rest of the trip shots up too when I get a chance.

Gobsmacking.
I have woken up many times to that view ,
when i was younger and did a lot of walking and climbing we would always spend a night or to camping beside the kingshouse .
that has to be one of the most photographed mountains in the uk if not the world !
and that has to be one of the very best shot i have seen of such a distinctive mountain , well done Gary and a great quinzee

Thank you everyone.
Craig, I think you are right about it being the the most photographed mountain, it is so iconic and it's position not far from the main road makes it almost the gateway to the highlands. I know very few photographers that can resist a shot at it.
From here I moved on to yet another icon. Eilean Donan Castle
