Walking Torridon Weekend

The Torridon have just organized and hosted the first walking weekend in the area. The weather has been kind in the main, so groups have enjoyed guided walks up Liathach, Beinne Dearg and Beinn Eighe.

I took the opportunity to go on the Low level Photography walk with Eoghain Maclean who does great wildlife photography. Unfortunately being a group, wildlife was a bit short on putting in an appearance, as we didn’t move too quietly. Did see a very large bumblebee, dragonfly, a few common birds, heron fishing at low tide and oyster catchers. Still some lovely flowers around along with fungi,  fabulous lichens & mosses for anyone into macro photography.

Loch Claire Oct 11 Torridon Walking Event

So spent some time on landscape photography & looking at composition. The favourite of the photos I took is this one. Down by the shore at Loch Claire, looking towards Liathach. Now all I need is a converter and a few more filters……..!

Thank you to Eoghain for an inspiring day, a great day out and a re-kindled desire to do more photography. Also thank you to the Torridon for organising the event. They are already planning the next Walking Event early March 12.
