Looking across the Firth of Forth.

It’s about time I posted a picture that didn’t include lots of green in it.

Dunmore hill and Melville monument

Dunmore hill and obelisk by Gary Allman

Taken on our Comrie hike, looking North towards the granite obelisk on Dunmore hill which commemorates Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville.

There was a tad too much water vapour in the atmosphere for a really clear picture, but I liked the way the light was playing on the field and trees.

The 18mm – 105mm kit lens that came with the camera is very good – though as I shot this at 50mm I could have used my prime lens and got an even sharper image. Checking the image in detail I was very surprised to find that details of the obelisk can be seen.
