This was taken in the river gorge near where I was staying on holiday. The images (below) of the loch were taken with a Canon compact digital camera, but this was taken with my old Pentax SLR film camera - using a tripod and long exposure. It's so much easier using a good SLR camera, where you can see exactly what you're taking and have better control over the whole process. In theory you can frame shots accurately using the LCD on a compact digital camera, but when you frame a picture through a viewfinder you shut out all extraneous information. This both concentrates the mind and causes a slight dislocation from reality, and for me it produces better results. I think I need a digital SLR.
