Way back in October 1997 I was staying at Torridon hostel (Scottish Highlands) to climb a few Munros. I was up early, and so took a walk along the shore of the loch to watch this dawn of a beautiful still day. The tide was in and the sea as flat as a mirror, perfectly reflecting the dawn sky. I originally painted this the same year, but decided to repaint it now 20 years later applying the skills and techniques I've picked up over the last couple of decades. Painted in oil on board 20x16 inches.

I took this shot of Plockton and Loch Carron form the crag above the village.
