Who can deny a leaping dolphin against the setting sun! ‘I doubt I’ll ever catch a moment like this again in my life. A bottlenose dolphin jumping with the sunset behind. Taken on the Cromarty Firth.’ Photo: Scott Hendry

Something very other worldly about getting above the clouds for sunset. Makes me want to try and do that more often. Summer night on A’ Mhaighean …..above the clouds. Photo: David John Robertson

No sunsets needed here! We loved the sense of adventure and connection between the two adventurers in this one. Photo: Tine Randen

I am a self taught photographer, I never took photos in the winter because the trees were bare of leaves and I thought everything looked dull. Then I discovered low light, changing of light and now I’m out trying to capture all the winter sunsets on Loch Tay! Photo: Archie McLaren

The wilderness of South Island NZ….tranquility and beauty….actually we were being bitten to shreds by sand flies but who needs to know, wouldnt want to ruin a good photo…sit still I urge my fiancee!!! Photo: Rominy Colville

Magnificent! see this ever day but the changing light makes it magnificent ever time. Photo: Archie Mclaren
