Sometimes a bit of extra effort pays dividends when photographing naturally beautiful places.
This is the stunning Bay of Kotor on the coast of Montenegro, photographed from above the historic town itself.
To get to this elevated position I first of all had to pay a three euro ticket fee, then climb a couple of hundred feet up the side of a small mountain to reach this viewpoint.
Not too much effort under normal circumstances, but at 35 degrees centigrade I was certainly huffing and puffing heaving a fully laden LowePro up this far.
Still, it was worth it as the view just kept getting better and better as the altitude increased, and when you've only got a few hours to play with you have to make the effort.
