On November 12th 2015 GETTY IMAGES unveiled plans for a new stills upload platform called ESP (Enterprise Submission Platform), to replace the existing 'Moment portal', and on November 13th I was invited to Beta test the new system prior to it being rolled out to the general public in December. (ESP went live on Tuesday December 15th 2015)

Photograph taken at an altitude of Three hundred and one metres at 10:33am on Friday 13th September 2013,  off the A82 having just passed Lochan na h-Achlaise on our left, heading towards Fort William.  

Crossing from a lay by, I came across a body of water left in pools from Loch Ba, a shallow irregular shaped loch to the South West of Glen Coe within Rannoch Moor in the Highlands of Scotland.
