This is a little castle on the west coast of Scotland
Rhys from Darlington, United Kingdom
great shot , I was there about 2 years ago, and didnt get any closer than you! But having said that the inclusion of the mountains and the loch gives it so much more impact and really gives it some context and scale. grand work.

Lovely photo Alun with great composition again!
(PS - keep an eye on your horizon with this type of landscape shot - this one looks like it's leaning slightly down to the left)
