Soft Evening Light on Ben Loyal

Finally made the trip back to Sutherland after almost 2 years since I was there last.  Weather was absolutely glorious and exceptionally lucky not to get blasted with cold winds or rain.  Revisited most of the same locations I did last time in the hope of some special light. When I visited Ben Loyal last, it was a strong wind, so there was no chance of mirror reflections.  This evening was wind free when I arrived but lacked any clouds behind Ben Loyal.  Then out of nowhere a rain shower passed through and the wind picked up.  This provided the clouds I was looking for but lost the mirror reflection.  It was not an intense sunset but I am very pleased with the soft warm autumnal tones in the image.  Taken as a panorama to capture more of the scene.
