Hill Running - a photo on Flickriver

Hill Running

            I'm sure many of us have done it - running to attempt to capture a location with great light. That was the case here - had just gotten out of the car after a rain shower and spotted a small bit of rainbow close to this telephone mast. So I ran 200 metres up the hill as fast as I could as the rainbow was spreading across the sky. Assuming this was likely to be a fleeting event, I aimed my run for the spot with the best symmetry between the mast and the rainbow and took the shot, not taking the time to bother with the tripod. And it didn't last long! The low morning sunshine really helped the Red Cuillin hills in behind glow.
