Another 'Streapadair' classic, do you use an intervalometer or is there a mad dash counting seconds to get to your chosen location? How many frames do you have of you running into shot? :) Great shot btw.

A fair few, some a bit hilarious. No, in this case I could see the view was crying out for a figure but it was too far for a sprint, and the stance being rather vertiginous I got a passer-by to press the shutter for me rather than ask her to pose.

Would like to see some of those unseen shots, just to see the human side of these classics.

Maybe put one up as my mugshot. Running Man . . .

fantastic photo, but where is it?!

Thanks. Skye - Blaven is on the detached part of the Black Cuillin, and is one of the very best viewpoints in Scotland - to the main ridge (of which Sgurr nan Gillean is the northernmost major peak), the Red Cuillin, out over the sea to Rum, Eigg and the Outer Isles, and a lot more. If you're lucky!

Been looking at Scottish mountain photos for about 45 years, now. This one near Blaven is unique in my experience.
Well done!
