A beautiful autumn day in the Scottish Highlands. Kilchurn Castle, Loch Awe, Argyll & Bute, Highlands, Scotland.

Very nice location. Cool cows. However it is very hard to reach without a car. 3/4 hour trip from the train station by foot on the side of the road. Was worth it though.

Beautiful shot. Did you focus stack, or just use a small enough aperture? I like the colors and composition.

Thanks! No focus stacking, this is from a RAW file shot on a Google Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Whoa, dang, I didn't know you could shoot raw on phones. What's this world coming to! Time for me to sell my d800 before it's too late! Kidding.. Sorta.. But, nice job, never would've guessed that was from a phone. :-)

Well this is the thing, I deliberately went on this particular trip without my Sony a7ii; I wanted to see what my new phone was capable of. Quite freeing in a way, certainly in terms of weight and not having to change lenses.

Oh that's cool. I did similar on a recent hiking trip, one where I'd normally bring my tripod, ND filters, lenses etc.. So heavy. And yeah, it was nice. Also, to not be constantly thinking "how to set up this shot", just, enjoy it and snap some photos.
