I spent a few days up on Harris last week, it was very windy with lots of wintry showers. The wintry showers were rather pretty on the horizon at sunset one night. #photography #scotland #sunset
The damp dark grey skies have been rather overpowering the past month, so it was nice to see a glimpse of colour last night at Loch Garry. #loch #sunset #scotland #landscape
A bird flying alone above the mist and trees near Boat of Garten, as the sun set at the end of 2025. #mist #landscape #sunset
Another image from last weeks trip up the West Coast of Scotland, when the fog started burning off thirty minutes after sunrise near Loch Cluanie #landscapephotography #mist #scotland
Applecross, where the Highlands meet the tide. One moment you’re tracing the curve of the coastline, the next you’re watching a herd of deer step onto the beach. #scotland #landscape #wildlife #beach
Just published 🙂 I've been wanting to write about the rut for years but never had the piccies to back it up till last autum 🦌. It certainly helps when it's happening right outside your house.
In his latest column, @countrysideben.bsky.social listens to one of the most dramatic sounds and spectacles of the Highlands. Read all about the Rut: www.walkhighlands.co.uk/news/the-rut/
I just love Autumn, especially the misty early morning starts #mist #scotland #llandscapephotography #landscapes
After last nights cloudy moonrise, it was nice to see the moon lift off above The Bass Rock tonight, with Lamb Island and Fidra joining in the almost full moon party. #landscapephotography #moon #scotland #dusk
Did you catch last nights full moon ? The skies were mostly clear and it was quite warm for a wee change. July's Buck Moon over the glowing lights of Edinburgh city centre. #moon #edinburgh #photography
During a brief visit to the Isle of Skye on Wednesday, the light was really nice for a few mins over Cleat (1100 feet), which is a neighbour of The Quiraing. I managed to get this shot before the dark clouds in the background came over and it started raining. #scotland #landscapephotography
Lovely shot
This proud little puffin was soaking up the sunshine on the Isle of May. Sparkles on the sea, beak full of charm — a perfect coastal moment. #puffin #seabird #ukbird #photohour #scotland #papageientaucher #schottland #isleofMay #Anstruther #nature #wildlifephotography #wildlife #ukwildlife #bokeh
I was in town for an interesting photo shoot last week. The restored 19th century #Edinburgh time ball being lowered onto the Nelson Monument on Calton Hill.
Mist lingering around Loch a' Chuilinn, 5 or 6 miles SouthWest of Garve. #landscape #photography #scotland
#EdinburghCastle lit up in purple tonight for International Epilepsy Awareness Day, viewed from across the water in Fife. #nightphotography #Edinburgh
I got up at early yesterday morning for sunrise, some nice shades and shapes in the distant mountains before the sun popped up. #landscape #sunrise #mountains
Full moon rising over the North Sea last night, with The Bass Rock on the horizon (about 20 miles away) #moon #photography
Some wonderful recent footage showing the raw beauty of Iceland in winter, love the intimate encounter with the reindeer.
Two separate weeks in Northern Iceland. An immersive 10min video, simply by pressing record on my Canon R3, using CLog3, balanced in Davinci Resolve and then I mixed recorded audio and music together. #iceland #video #landscape #landscapehotography #winter #ice #waterfall youtu.be/AKOjouAKnig?...
