Beecraigs country park reservoir – First visit

Visited Beecraigs country park and took a walk around the reservoir searching for a location for a photo. Tbh it was a wash out in the end.

Thanks for watching

Scottish highlands day 3, Falls of Foyre

As we left the 3rd day we were already 15min down the road before we realsied we missed out n the biggest waterfall that was just minutes away form the camp site. We turned around and drove back to see Falls of Foyre, a walk down the hill to two viewing places made it all worth it.

Thank for watching

Scottish highlands day 2, Invermoriston & Whitebridge

We left Plodda falls and drove back towards Loch Ness. We stopped at Invermoriston to visit the old bridge and see the river flowing between the bridges. Very dangerous location with moss making the rocks very slippery.

A worthy visit on any photography trip into the highlands.

Thank you for watching.

Scottish highlands day 2, Plodda falls

After we left Fort Augustus we travelled to Plodda falls. A waterfall that is absoltely stunning. It has 2 tiers and a old rusty walkway lost in time. I would love to return to this location in the futre and spend more time there and this time take some filters to help with the blown out skies.

Thanks for watching

Scottish highlands day 2, Fort Augustus canal locks

On the 2nd day we visted a few sites starting off at Fort Augustus. This was my 1st visit and I will be going back to revisit this place. It has so many potentials, won’t even go into the potential of a great drone video from Loch Ness up the Locks, maybe one day if I can get there early enough that there’s no people around.

Anyway wihout further ado, I hope you like the next vlog from the highlands trip.

Loch ness visit

We stayed at the Wigwams next to Loch Ness for the 2 night in the highlands, wasn’t the cheapest tbh but it was a nice site.

Had a early breakfast and a quick photo before we set out for the day.

Cheers

Spending the weekend in Scottish highlands, driving up.

Late last year I started the whole YouTube malarkey. My 1st attempt capturing images while filming was in the Scottish highlands.

1st stop was at the Loch Earn and the mirror man, unfortunately it’s now been removed. You can see that in the last post.

Further up the road we stopped off at the wreck in Fort William. I’ve been wanting to visit the wreck for years and was glad to finally get to see it. I have been back since a few weeks back.

Cheers

City secrets

We should investigate our cities better when it comes to it’s history and hidden secrets. I only had glimpses of Glasgow’s hidden gems. I was one day there for a specific reason and had a few hours spare. This was the result of a walk I took trying to find the gems.

A combination of the 5 bridge legs under the railway bridge at the river.
I was playing around with long exposure and traffic. This was a post office truck going across my shot.
I used two photos over each other to end up with a split of both.
A portion of the wall mural, well known and worth a visit.

Thanks for the visit.
