GLEN NEVIS FROM GLEN ROY, EARLY MORNING... (Inspired by Peter Brook's painting...)

 Glen Nevis From Glen Roy, Early Morning…

(Inspired by another Peter Brook painting…)



Walking boots pulled on over thick socks, jeans tucked in

And early morning cool kept out by warm clothing, even headwear,

The gods forbid… Wetness, pervading the breathtaking chill

Glistens on footwear, worn joints ease into action and the wonders

Of Lochaber are soon revealed by marred mists, swirling above 

The harsh moor. 

Highland snow, capping the peaks to form a stunning floodlit 

Ridge instil permanence and enormity and such beauty abounds, as the merest hint

Of sunlight merges with the dank sky over the  range, whilst

Dotted livestock enliven a field of green and a lake nestles, a silvery seam to glint 

Upon the moor…   


Pete Ray…

3rd February 2026…


Fort William lies nearby but the streak of silver water, the snow upon the mountains and the sheep dotted on the light green field, all seem to attract the attention…
