just over the hill was this little farm cottage (or more like a small fortress) which was quite an amazing sight, the family was tired of me stopping every 2 seconds to take a photograph, but I could not resist this one, I took a number of shots from this spot, sadly in my haste i messed up the focus on a few which meant my pano, which was gonna be my better shot did not turn out very well 🙂
So, after alittle research it turns out that this place is: Castle Lodge, Corgarff, Strathdon. Apparently Corgarff Castle dates back to the 16th century, which makes it kinda old… The castles last use was to control the smuggling of illicit whisky between 1831 .. man i reckon it would have some great stories to tell 🙂

What a powerful landscape! Everything comes together to highlight the cottage, but it is the texture of the hills that I find so enthralling.
Excellent work ! 🙂
