Remember there is a time limit on this thread ! :D So we don't just stagnate....

If a new picture hasn't been posted 24 hours after the confirmation of the correct answer, anyone is free to add a picture of their own, for people to have a stab at.

Additionally, should no-one get the correct answer - or a reply that their answer is correct - within 24 hours of the photo being submitted, a new photo can be submitted by anyone for the same process to commence.

Should no-one manage to get the answer correct within 24 hours - and a new picture has been submitted by someone else - it would be nice for the poster of the unanswered photograph to let people know the name of the Loch and its location.

I did - I'd call it 'arty' but think you might be offended :lol:

As I mentioned, I knew I'd forget about this again. Here's a new photo:

Cheers Malky think your right about the east coast thing. Whats the name of the loch in the centre of the picture behind this 5 star accommodation. OK I Know it's a small part of the photo but the hills will give it away.

Here's a clue the snow topped hill right of centre and the hill to the right of the loch are both munros.

Looks, to me, awfully like the lochan beneath the summit of Deuchary Hill, Lochan na Beinne, with the River Tay in the distance?
