For whatever reason i have only just read this.
Yet again you have trailblazed for me as i have failed in previous attempts to go up there in the right weather.
It has potential for my middle holiday this year.

A great drive. We enjoyed The
Forgotten Highway a couple of years ago.

Don't worry, you can't flood a canal.

A few years ago we stayed by the Corinth Canal on a wild night and the lock keeper spent all night going up and down the lock adjusting the flow to stop it from flooding a farm by the canal.

When the natural light and background are just right I just needed a touch of fill in flash or a bit more talent

I remember our trip on that railway. Special to us as John is a real "steamy". Thanks for the great photo

That's a cracking photo, well done. I hope you don't mind but I've tweaked it using Lightroom mobile or Lightroom Android as it seems to be called this week - it keeps changing! I selected the area of the bird and increased the exposure. Done with a thumb on a phone so not very precise but it sort of works. I've also made the colours a bit richer.

Sorry but I am just not seeing your connection. Your area looks nothing like the film. No mountains for a start. No house there either. In fact it looks pretty flat and boring around there. The house in skyfall is supposed to be Glencoe area.

Thanks I did put a heading with the photo but it seems to have disappeared ?

From my book I think they overwinter in that part of Spain, the rest of the European population go to Africa. Not a common bird.

And yet it was filmed here. First 2 pictures where the sand mass is. That is where the house was built. The mountainous scenes were filmed in Glencoe area.
