I am a wet-plate collodion artist and photographer, located in the Scottish Highlands. I push photographic processes to the absolute limits.
4x5 inch negative from Inchindown ladder
This is footage from a while ago when I made a 4x5 inch large format analogue negative showing the entirety of one of the tanks in the WWII ex MOD site called Inchindown.
To get this shot I climbed the 45ft ladder, anchored the tripod and Camerdactyl 4x5 inch camera, switched to red light, opened the lens, climbed down the ladder and walked all of the 236m to the other end of the tank, popping the flash as I went. Then, I had to walk back down the tank in pitch-black and ascend the ladder so as not to contaminate the shot with any unwanted light. Thereafter, I closed the lens, dismantled the gear and exfiltrated from the facility.

SR FILM PHOTOGRAPHY - 2022 REVIEW
Просмотров 1262 года назад
A run down on some of my work created in 2022. Huge thanks to all of the immense people I've collaborated with and who have shared some time with me and the big camera. Making these portraits possible is down to the awesome talents of Lena and Thor from Skye Fims Scotland. I'm feeling very content with the progress I've made in the mountains in preparation for the next expedition in the Cuillin...
Inchindown: Raising the Swing-Arm
Просмотров 9452 года назад
During my time photographing at Inchindown, an ex-M.O.D. top-secret underground fuel oil storage facility, I made a short video that documented when I re-instated one of the winches in tunnel one, reconnecting the original winching cable, installing some protection (in case the cable failed under load) with a view to attempting to raise the swing-arm pipe that was used to both fill and extract ...

Nigg Sutor Photo-walk
Просмотров 953 года назад
Take in the stunning views and clean fresh air that the North Sutor in Nigg, Ross-Shire has to offer. Join me as I guide you along the clifftop circular walk and introduce you to some of the lesser explored WWII Military Installations. This is a moderately-paced walk where we will have plenty of opportunities to photograph the beautiful scenery.
The Real Kings Cave

Set within the North Sea Coastal Region of Nigg, Ross-Shire, I travel to the lesser known and often missed Kings Cave, steeped in history and geology. You can expect a first person view detailing the descent from Nigg Sutor, along the shoreline, into the cave and back.

We went back to the WWII Searchlight locations at Nigg (North Sutor). Set on making it to the second Searchlight, things get sketchy!
I visited this facility within past 2 weeks on an official tour, available on FB, fascinating but not for those who are scared of confined spaces and going through tubes!!!! Many thanks to local Banerman Group for giving permission.
Brilliant adventure on a cool bike.
well done! is the litte TRUDARK your darkbox? What was ist before?
Cheers! No, ThruDark is a clothing brand I have a lot of gear from.
@@srfilmphotography4480 What darkbox do you used?

@@srfilmphotography4480 Great, thank you!
Btw I am really interested in your complete equipment and how you pack everything in the rucksack. I plan some hiking trips too and just start with wetplate. Just in case you plan a video about it! 💪🤩
Good job!
Many thanks
It’s sealed and blocked up now
Good video there’s one in Portsmouth south England similar to this it has nine tanks 35 feet high and 6 of them are 240 metres long and two are 150 and 1 50 m long
Never really heard of that place before, reminds me of the book The Lost World. Gorgeous.
Great, mine should arrive this week. Don't have room for a darkroom so will put this in a corner. For smaller prints that is quite enough.
Hello! Nice! Where did you buy it?
Via ILFORD...
Very cool! What's the set up time like? (I like to use a reusable plastic shopping bag as a rain cover for my field camera when it's drizzly)
Hi, set up time is about two to three minutes...
Good to see one of these quite literally out in the wild
Duuuuude!
