An early start for a photoshoot on Loch Lomond in the Trossachs National Park for a client. Took a series of quick shots while waiting for the sun to peak over the hills in the distance!

A scenic long-exposure taken at the waterfall by Campsie Fells, Scotland (UK). If there’s one thing I admire about water the most, it’s that no matter what’s in its way, no matter how big or small the obstacle, no matter how hard it gets, it always pushes through and refuses to be stopped. It has a final destination - a goal - and it’s focused. It knows where it’s going, and it flows. And even though it may have taken a few detours or unusual paths along the way, it comes back and joins as one - it becomes whole again. Be like water, my friend (Bruce Lee).

This is one of the most spectacular mountain on the road towards Isle of Skye. The mountain top is treeless and I really love its texture. I will back this place in winter when the snow falling and covering it. I can imagine how fantastic it will be at that time.

Walking my dog in the hills overlooking the village where I live, camera in hand, I came across this view & took a random hand held shot with the beautiful Campsie Fells & Arrochar Alps in the background. I really should go back & retake the photo with a tripod next time. Maybe a snowy winter view would be nice.

This is my image of Lochan na h-achlaise in Scotland just off the A82. I was travelling in a camper van for the weekend on the search for some scenic places in my homeland and when I came across this I just had to take a photo and I am so pleased with the end result

We went on a walk to explore Devilla forest a few months after a forest fire in the area. It was a beautiful mix of burnt, dead forest with the smell of fire in the air, and vibrant new life jumping out and hiding amongst the ruins.

One of my favourite places. Glen Etive in the Scottish Highlands is full of deer and beautiful landscapes. It allows you to have peace and quiet and just chill out with the most important thing to me and my photography - the great outdoors.

We were coming back from Glen Etive after photographing the wild deer and 2 guys were getting their kayaks ready to go into the water. I asked if I took take some videos of them with my DJI Spark and they Kindly said yes. I wasn’t sure if I was actually going to be able to get the drone in the air as it was extremely windy. Luckily I got some footage and a few photos as they went down the rapids.

You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and exhaustion. Then, when you’re no longer thinking ahead, each step isn’t just a means to an end but a unique event in itself. This leaf has jagged edges, this rock looks loose, the snow is closer. These are things you should notice anyway. To live only for some future goal is shallow. It’s the sides of the mountain which sustain life, not the top. Here’s where things grow. But of course without the top you can’t have any sides. It’s the top that defines the sides.

The Scottish Highlands in the early morning, the weather wasn’t the best but the views definitely were. The clouds came rolling in over the mountains for the entirety of the journey to Fort William. The most photos I’ve taken in one sitting for sure.

Scotland is well known for its highlands consisting of lochs and mountains. However most of the time the weather there is cloudy and rainy. Upon my first visit to this picturesque place I was lucky enough to experience the scenery in this beautiful weather and managed to get a picture of this landscape with hikers in the foreground.

Over an hour waiting in the freezing wind all for a brief glimpse of light on the land that lasted a mere 5 seconds. That’s what landscape photography is all about! Castle Stalker overlooking Loch Linnhe in the Scottish Highlands.

The Scottish wildcat (Felis silvestris grampia), or Highlands tiger, is a dark coloured subspecies of the European wildcat native to Scotland. Its range previously also included England and Wales, but it became extinct in these areas, as well as in southern Scotland, within the last 150 years. Extant numbers are estimated at between 100 and 300.

I was on a trip in Edinburgh and in the Princess Streets Park i found this little mate, played with him for a solid 15 minutes and was able to shot stunning pictures of him feeding and running.

Took this photo during my trip to Edinburgh with my girlfriend. Just lov these old tall buildings and also lots of greenery everywhere. The weather was constantly changing so I was pretty lucky to take this photo before it started to rain.

I’m a huge fan of HP so visiting the Glenfinnan viaduct was at the very top of my bucket list for our trip to Scotland. I was hoping to see the steam train but unfortunately it didn’t ride on the weekend. I was a little disappointed in myself for not checking in advance but Scotland’s weather made it up with us. We knew there was a storm coming up and it came from the hills behind the viaduct. So we really saw the storm coming for us. It was absolutely stunning and I’m glad I managed to get this dramatic shot. We didn’t get soaked, we made it back to the car just in time :-)

After a long hike through the Scottish Highlands, we stumbled into the owners of this house who were shooting partridge. They offered us to stay for dinner (which was partridge pie) but I settled on just taking a photo instead!

My daughter (descendant of Scottish royalty) and I peered out into the North Sea to imagine what it would have been like – hundreds of years ago – to see invading Vikings on the horizon.

The Devil’s Point was our first Munro on our trip to the Cairngorm National Park in Scotland. It’s an easy Munro with great view over to Ben Macdui and back down over the River Dee.

On the way to the Summit of Ben Macdui we went from cold and wet to very cold and full of rime, ice and snow the closer we got to the summit. Happily the sun was out and thus it was a fine day out in the hills!
