Was I lucky to get this very brief shaft of sunset light on a cloudy summer's night? Yes probably but you make you own luck by sitting it out with camera on tripod waiting patiently for something special. This image is a blend of 2 shots, one exposed for the sky and one exposed for the foreground rocks. Cape Wrath headland can be seen just below the sun. My tent was only a few metres away.
