The Trossachs: The old row boat on Loch Ard.

The Trossachs: The old row boat on Loch Ard.
A sister view to yesterdays posting, which is interesting to compare.
A scene here worthy of a painting, for sure. This boat must have some history and later, pulled to this spot by a local photographer maybe :) For me – this photo alone was worth the whole trip.
After this day, we would see Ben Lomond capped in white after night snowfalls.

Ben Lomond at 974 metres (3195ft) is one of the most familiar of the Munros (mountains over 3000 ft high) in Scotland. It is the most southerly and is also one of the most popular hill-walks in Scotland. The mountain is a central, prominent feature of the landscape of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park.


Enjoy full size.

Hi Herb you have put me in a difficult position I can’t decide which photo is the best between today’s and yesterdays I have put them side by side on my big screen and can not decide so it looks like another ⭐⭐.
Perfect TOZ

Herb Riddle club has replied to TOZ club
Eh eh, I like it that you should have such a problem Toz. Like you, I flitted between the two scenes for which was best. Similarly I looked at both of these side by side on my two IPS monitors that I use both at once on my PC. Many thanks again for the BIG double star.

Cheers, Herb

Hello Herbert.
After a long time I have been missing from Ip, it is always a great pleasure for me to admire your gallery.
This photo immediately caught my eye; and not only because it is the first one I see when opening your gallery :-)
But just because I've always loved abandoned old boats,
There is in this beautiful image ,so expressive and impressive, a sense of melancholic suggestiveness and deep evocative power.
My best wishes,
Bea

Wonderful to see you again Bea. This like the preceding photo are real highlights of my recent Scottish trip. Like you, I do enjoy seeing and photographing these boats. I sometime wonder about editing these pictures in a far more contrasty way, maybe in monochromes but I must admit to liking this more natural portrayal. Very happy indeed that it has provoked such a comment from you. I will pop over to your gallery again now to see how you are doing there.

Keep safe. Herb

ps hope you have not been ill !

Stunningly beautiful, - my type of scenery for sure Herb. Great composition - I love the boat in the foreground. Picture perfect with those reflections and the wonderful view and all topped off with a lovely sky.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Ecobird club
Hi Carol. This boat scene was only a few feet away from the jetty, yet they both make up quite different pictures. Great that you enjoyed it too and yes, i fully know that this is your kind of scenery too.

Keep good, Herb

It doesn't look like it has been used for a while Herb, but perfectly positioned and generously overgrown to make a great picture! The view beyond is of course spectacular!
All the best, Rosa.
