Thank you everybody. I'm honoured, especially given how many good photographs there were this month.
A word about the colours. I'm generally of the view that the iPhone (11 Pro in this case) over-saturates colours somewhat, certainly when compared with my Nikon/18-300mm combination which, if anything, goes too far in the opposite direction. But in the case of this picture after I took it I did compare the shot on screen with what was in front of me and the colours are really pretty accurate. It was very freaky light. We'd had thick fog all day, and in the afternoon I took the dog out for a walk with the thought that maybe, just maybe, the sun would burn off the fog. So it proved, though only for about 15 minutes. Luckily I was in the right place in Glen Strae by then, though all too soon the fog rolled back in and BMM disappeared.
By the way, Grahmamw, that tree annoys me too. But every other framing I tried produced other problems of its own...
