Sunrise at Eilean Donan

Eilean Donan is a 13th century castle in the highlands of Scotland, built on an island where three beautiful sea lochs meet.

I stopped off for the night at Eilean Donan on my long drive up to Skye.  I was lucky to wake up early the next morning with the sky warming up to an amazing sunrise.  This image was taken after the initial brighter colour as I preferred the softer peachy hues and the contrasting dark clouds that were coming in from the north east.

Taken with my Nikon D850 and professionally printed in carbon neutral lab in London (additionally for every print bought I donate £5 to the Woodland Trust to help offset any delivery impact). I have chosen to print on Hahnemühle German Etching, which has a warm base tone and a mottled texture which adds texture to the seaweed that was visible with the low tide. German Etching is a heavy weight Giclée art printing paper at 310 gsm.
