Photographer’s Note
Lochnagar (1155 m) is a mountain in the Grampians of Scotland, located about five miles south of the River Dee near Balmoral.
It is named after Lochan na Gaire, the 'little loch of the noisy sound', a loch to be found in the mountain's northeast corrie. Today the loch is popularly called Lochnagar too. The summit is usually referred to as Cac Càrn Beag, meaning "small cairn of faeces" in Gaelic.
Beinn Chìochan ('breast mountain') is an alternative Gaelic name.
