Hi all
So I'm off to glencoe for a week mid September
It's a place I've driven through on the way to further a feild
But not explored the area
Any must visit spots
I know the question is open to a thousand answers but do your best as I'm trying to plan to not waste time
When I'm there
Cheers
 
@SFTPhotography and others will no doubt give you more pointers but some some of my favourite places:

Glen Etive, all of it!
Castle Stalker
Lochan na h-achlaise
Buchaille Etive Mor - Standard view point is the waterfalls near the bridge on the Glen Etive Road but there are loads of interesting, less trodden view points
Waterfall at Kinlochleven (can't remember the name)
Black Rock cottage

These are some my favourite spots and in all honesty most have been done to death but it's an area that presents great views everywhere so just travelling around a bit or doing a bit of hiking will give you loads of opportunities for photos.
 
That's a great start
I know people on here are local to the area so will point me in the right direction
I've no problem shooting all the usual subjects
I know the veiw point you mention at the buchaille I was there passing through
And the road that takes you to loch etive
 
There's also the deer along Glen Etive, red squirrels at inchcree, wrecks at Corpach and the fairy bridge at Fas na Cloiche. That area is full of things other than that mountain to photograph and lots within an hours drive. The fotovue book of Scotland is good if you're unfamiliar with that region.
 
You got to explore the whole river from the famous falls all the way to the layby for the devils staircase, so many falls, water pools etc to shoot.


Torren Lochan and the falls on the river coe near the clachaig inn are great plus the river etive just yp from the kingshouse hotel for morning reflections of the buachaille
