To those who may say that this shot has been done a million times I make no apology for having photographed it myself. The iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct imortalized in several television series and films, (the most notable of which is the Harry Potter series) has been a structure I've long wanted to capture and will return to do so again in the future.
Glenfinnan Viaduct is a 21 arch railway viaduct at Glenfinnan in the Lochaber region of the West Highlands of Scotland. The viaduct is part of the West Highland Line running from Fort William to Mallaig. At the time of it's construction (1897 to 1901) it was one of the largest non-reinforced concrete structures in the world. During the summer months West Coast Railways use the line to run the steam train The Jacobite between Fort William and Mallaig.
Standing close to the head of Loch Sheil the viaduct looks down the glen towards Glenfinnan Monument which was built in 1815 to commemorate the Jacobite cause. File 3114.
