I took these photos using my Canon 600D. Some slight photoshop was done to straighten horizon a tad and get rid of a couple of birds. Original photo specs were:
1 - f/16, 1/60 sec. ISO 100, 29mm focal length taken at 09.24 hrs
2 - f/16, 1/15 sec. ISO 100, 18mm focal length taken at 19.15 hrs
A wonderful place depicted in two nice shots. I prefer the atmospheric feel of the first one. The second is a bit dazzling for me - probably just the sort of scene that would benefit from restrained use of HDR techniques.

Thank you Philip. My favourite is the first one, and I have done no processing with the other one, other than get rid of some birds on the water. Perhaps I need to tone the sunshine a bit, it was as taken, but I prefer them that way. As Ed says "to each his own"

Ditto the above comments. I also find number 1 to be the more pleasing, but, having said that, they are both first class images. Number two may have benefited by using a graduated ND filter. So with Christmas coming up? Just a thought.
Best regards.

The first one is my favorite. We saw lots of different weather when we went in September. Just love this place and Glencoe. I agree with Ed about the pier, but great photos.

The pier was my point in taking the photo. The background was merely fortuitous. As I said elsewhere, I am primarily a record photographer. Nice shots happen by chance!
I had meant to post this cropping, taking out the extraneous stuff round the harbour, but somehow the wrong one was posted.
Ask yourself, "What's most important for the final image?".
