Winter Evening on High

4.30 pm. February. 3800 feet up. The long descent in the dark with axe and crampons was far preferable to staying high as the temperatures dropped to minus 20.

The view south includes Stob Gabhar, Stob Binnean and Ben More (Crianlarich).

Nikon with 200mm lens.

Change to daily post frequency - let us know what you think

Hello gloaming fans. I am increasing the number of daily posts to 3 as an experiment this next week as we are getting a lot more gloaming than normal thanks to the volcanic ash in the atmosphere (one good effect of that I guess) so let us know how this sits with you guys. Is 3 a day too much/too little? I don't want to clog up people's daily internet viewing too much which is why we've kept the posts to 2 a day until now.

I will keep it to 3 a day or change it back to 2 based on the verdict in the comments to this post so get your vote in if you have an opinion and thanks for following the blog.
