“Glencoe; the mountain environment at its most sublime.”
“Between Lower Falls and Steall Falls are three miles of the most beguiling river scenery imaginable. High waterfalls, tumbling cascades and rocky canyons abound. Every corner has a new story to tell, a new facet of landscape, miniature worlds to become lost in and always with the deep roar of the river for company.”
“Glen Nevis has a variety of woodland habitats from the dark coniferous forests of Achriabach to ancient Scots Pine remnants and Birch woodlands. By the River Nevis gardens of ferns, mosses and gnarled Pine trees cling tenaciously to steep ground. Views are confined but interest is everywhere, in the detail, in fragment.”
“The North Face of Ben Nevis presents a formidable facade high above the Allt a Mhuilinn, a bewildering array of rocky spires and pinnacles, hidden corries and dark gullies, tortured and elemental. Sitting in these rocky recesses on painting excursions I find profound silence, a crystalline world, harsh, unyielding, haunting yet utterly compelling.”
