Description

On a calm autumn morning, I arrived at Loch Maree before sunrise in anticipation of photographing some early morning mist. The weather forecast the previous night had looked promising, so the following morning an early start was necessary to get to this location to be in place for the early morning light. Taking the shot proved very tricky, as the sun was so low it was only just outside the boundary of the composition (both top and bottom, due to the reflection). There was a large amount of flare created even when using a standard lens hood. To remove the flare completely I ended up fashioning a makeshift lens hood out of some seating mats.
