Peter's World

"Water From The Gods"

"What a place this is! After wanting to get up to the Earnslaw Burn for several years, my hiking buddy Di was keen to tag along & so we set off in May, with a brilliant weather forecast. Canping in her tent for two nights, we were the only ones here & it gave us a chance to really explore the valley. But it was on our way out that I spotted this view,  I just had to stop & get the camera out! After standing in the freezing clear water for over an hour, I captured this scene & I left satisfied that I had captured all I could. But my plan is to return again around summer solstice, to try for other views with the summer sun & a wide arc of light to play with. Fingers crossed the weather might play along once again!"

“When Peter delivered our pieces, we couldn't believe the incredible detail. The images on his website - impressive as they are - really didn't do our prints justice!“
