This picture is pretty similar to November snow – I think I took it from more or less the same spot.
It’s looking across Glen Dochart from Meall nan Tarmachan in the Trossachs.
But I loved the tiny lone figure and the mixture of high and low contrast, so thought it was worth publishing as well.
What is a True Mountaineer?
It is someone who loves mountains, and longs to be with them; climbing their flanks and ridges, gazing on their summits from below, as well as from above. Someone who desires to see mountains in all their moods. Someone to whom climbing is the breath of life.

I’m glad you did. I prefer this one – mainly because of the smallness of that solitary figure, but also the black/white (or absence of colour) – creates a sense of timelessness
Thanks Joanna. Just noticed that the lone figure is also on the November snow picture – just left of centre. I would love to thank him, because I think he makes the image!
