Mountain rain

Streams of rain were visible falling from the dark clouds as I looked towards Ben Nevis and the Grampain mountains from the Commando Monument in Spean Bridge, Scottish Highlands. The munro Ben Nevis, at 4411 feet, is the highest mountain in the United Kingdom. The drama of the scene was increased by converting it to black and white.

The Caledonian canal, built in the early 19th C, joins the E. Coast of Scotland with the W. Coast, running from Inverness to Fort Willliam down a series of lochs (Ness, Ochy and Oich) and locks ending with the 8 staircase lock of Neptune's staircase at Loch Linnhe.

    Very moody and atmospheric. A view I've taken in a number of times.
