    K1 could take 8 but you couldn't run round it at Mallaig without a pain in the arse double shunt.

    "Battling K1" is nice, but the other two are quite special. I always think your distant shots are the perfect foil for Swiss Tony's "close up and personal" views - and I wouldn't wish to be without either.

    Is there any performance differences between 45407 & 44871 or 45231 for that matter?

    Thanks - first time, and perhaps only time, our styles of photography will get mentioned in the same sentence! I always look for something interesting but if I can't find it (I couldn't this morning) then a 3/4 shot will do.

    Great shots Neil, but in conditions like those you must be spoilt for a choice of location.

    Thanks Ian and Ralph - I'd agree that the 2nd one is best. You would think so Ralph but some places on the WHE are very restricted by tree growth or by sheer inaccesibility!

    Thanks Ralph - I'd consider today the weakest day out of all 5 but it's been a great week. Wednesday alone was worth coming up for.

    Double-headed Black 5s tomorrow!

    Thanks very much, the great conditions made filming a whole lot easier with cold air and very little wind

    Thanks Shep, I hope you can enjoy the same wonderful conditions for your visit

    What a fine video Austin - you're a real master with the camera. I see we were in some similar places, in particular Wednesday morning on the climb out of Glenfinnan? I've bookmarked it for reference as there's some clips in there that have given me ideas for next year.
