Jammy sod? Hee hee, you've said it! This huge bank of haar came rolling in from the Minch as I trekked over from the Cam Loch, but I went ahead with the traverse of Suilven anyway, and at 2000ft on the E ridge...
Sun was just setting too. Ever levitated along a hill with elation?

Ace shot - if you hadn't captured that scene well you would have been not a happy chappy! A great example of where climbing can take you. well done!

Charles Arthur - UKC - 22/Jan/06Report Superb picture, summing up all that is most magic about the mts. Fully deserving its number 1 position on UKC photos.
Gordon Stainforth - 22/Jan/06Report Is this as it was on the day or has photoshop lended a hand.
Either way it is a stunning picture and one that I would have stashed under my pillow as a wee laddie.

Horizon squint? Photoshopped? What are you on about, Mr Howff? No, this one owes nothing to PS, pure Kodachrome tranny.
Thanks for all the kind comments, UKC users.
streapadair - 23/Jan/06Report Thanks for all the kind comments, UKC users.
A completely uplifting phot, why we endure the daily grind so as to be able to get out and savour such moments. Brilliant.
Rubbishy - 24/Jan/06Report Speaking as a hill lover and Scottish meteorologist(retired), I can say that I do not think I have seen such a fine, striking picture of the temperature inversion phenomenon in our country.
In total envy and admiration of your opportunity, campsite and photo!

lukeanoble - 23/Jan/07Report Very very evocative... I keep looking at this when work is stressful, and it keeps me sane...
Profanisaurus Rex - 29/Jan/07Report My couple of hills climbed with him did not present visions such as this.Quite breathtakingly unique.

Phoenix Phoxhole - single-skin Goretex, 3 hoops, 1.3kg. It was only produced for a few years around 1980. Great little tent - still got it.
streapadair - 07/Feb/07Report Really great shot. Nostalgic too. Last time I trod Suilven I walked down and had a fantastic supper at the local Seaman's Mission for 2/6d
bergalia - 01/Apr/07Report Tremendous photo! I can't fault it technically, artistically or any other 'ically'. It's fabulous!
