Area of Altnaharra, Scotland. The ruined remains of the Highland Clearances settlement at Grumbeg, with Loch Naver and Ben Klibreck in the background. The site was cleared of its inhabitants in the early 19th century during the Highland Clearances to make way for sheep farming. This photograph has been produced by merging three differently exposed images of the same scene. All of which were captured at approximately the same time - on a tripod mounted camera – and digitally processed to produce the resulting artistic rendition of the scene.
