Description
- Scotland, Ben Cruachan -
The next day I in vain waited for better weather. There only were few days before my vacation would come to an end and I was forced to hike in heavy rain.
Some days ago I tried to find the path up to the place you see here but it ended in a lost area covered by almost manhigh wet fern and I was wet to the skin. I was very mad about that inability.
This day I found the path up to the Cruachan Power Station hidden deep within the mountain of Ben Cruachan on the shores of Loch Awe.
On the way up I had a wonderful view over the area but when I reached the dam there was nothing else to see because I stood before a wall of deep clouds and fog! ;o(
But the mighty silence and roughness around appears unreally.
Thanks a lot for your visit and all comments! Wish you a funny day! ;o)

I agree that this is a wonderful scene. Those clouds are thick as "pea soup". Lovely colors and pov. Well done!
A wonderful contrast in the rough natural (yet beautiful) surroundings and the might and stark symmetrical form and coldness of the dam.
Interesting shot.
Remember that feeling, of silence, lonelineness and limited visibility. Excellent capture of this mood, those clouds up there cover the lake and cause that special mood!
