I got about ten miles before the brakes on the van started playing up and I had to abandon the trip. This week I tried again and made it all the way to Marr Lodge and Glen Tanar but the first day was a wash out. I had a nice walk but it rained pretty much continually. The light was bad for either dry plate or digital photography. The next day the sun came out but not in a nice way. There was hardly a cloud in the sky resulting in glaring highlights and harsh shadows. For the third day the met office issued a weather warning for heavy rain! I came home early. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"849\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hyam.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Screenshot-2020-10-03-at-18.29.55-1024x849.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hyam.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Screenshot-2020-10-03-at-18.29.55-1024x849.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.hyam.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Screenshot-2020-10-03-at-18.29.55-640x530.png 640w, https:\/\/www.hyam.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Screenshot-2020-10-03-at-18.29.55-768x636.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hyam.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Screenshot-2020-10-03-at-18.29.55.png 1057w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Of my four trips in 2020 only one has come off as planned.
