Freeze Frame - a photo on Flickriver

Freeze Frame

Another image from the bitterly cold morning in Glencoe, the sunrise hadn't really produced anything magical but the previous nights freeze certainly had in the form of some amazing Ice patterns that had only just started to begin melting, to get this shot I had to use one of my most specialist pieces of photography equipment....., my pair of big lined wading wellingtons :-) by far one of the best purchases ever! with those on I could wade through the river to the central rocky area looking for frozen pools of water.

This one seemed perfect for what I wanted, looking towards the Boochle ahead, a really low perspective allowing for the normally prominent River Coupall to be removed from the scene for something I feel is pretty different to the norm from this location, the hardest bit was getting low enough to compose the image as I wanted it, you have to be a bit of a contortionist sometimes, and enjoy getting covered in mud. All part of the fun.
