Man, you are an absolute machine, the amount of work to put these videos on is not a joke, it is a one man crew, an army of one man, I really don’t know how you can do if and consistently. I guess the need of a financial stability comes to mind as it is not easy to be a photographer nowadays outside of RUclips, but even to succeed on RUclips is not an easy task by all means. People that criticize your photography are missing the point, we all have our preferences, they should appreciate the sheer amount of work you are putting in to bring us entertainment. Once again thank you and I always remember to click the thumbs up 👍🏻 before I leave.
We have just returned from a 14-day Scotland photo road trip. 12 of them were rainy. Despite that, we still managed to get a lot of great photos. Scotland is magical... especially the Highlands.
Thomas is a well known photographer, but I always believe his true talent is documentary Videography, or story telling. I am not discrediting his photography skill, but I would bet he is more videographer than photographer at heart. His photos are absolutely beautiful, but his videos are outstanding.
Scotland in that weather is beautiful. I'm an Aussie but lived in the UK for a few years with my wife and son. We had a little Ford Escort popup camper, which was tall enough for anyone to stand up in when the top was up. We headed to Scotland for a week late in October and the weather turned stormy. Somewhere up near Cape Wrath (great name for that kind of weather) we stopped at a village and had to reverse the van into a space between two shops as the wind would have blown the doors off had we tried to open them out in the street. There was no way we could camp in that weather as the van would have toppled over so we found a B and B. When we got there the wind was so strong that it picked up our six year old son and blew him across the ground like a cartwheeling teddy bear. I had to go chasing after him and carry him inside. We fell in love with that wild stormy landscape and still have holiday snaps that take me back there.
Great video, despite the challenging conditions! Two things bring me to the comments section today... 1) You've called yourself out about complaining a fair bit over the past 12-18 months. In these recent videos I feel like you're dealing with horrible weather and/or challenging conditions, and not a complaint to be heard 👍 2) I'm really liking the image recap / slideshow you've started to do at the end of the video. Nice way to wrap things up, and personally I enjoy seeing the images a second time...especially back-to-back, which I find gives me a sense of place and a good feel for how the photography went overall.
It's amazing to think that when you look at a landscape image in print you often have no idea of the lengths the photographer went to to capture that image. I realise that more and more as I watch your videos. Even being in the right place at the right time to capture a double rainbow wasn't quite like that. It was as a result of perseverence and hardship in horrendous conditions and I admire each of you all the more for that. I'll never again view your images without also knowing the effort it may have taken to capture them. All the more so because my camera stayed with me in a warm house during the recent storm!This is why you've reached 500k. Brilliant work.
Lost track of your channel for a couple years and happened on it this morning. Was a nice surprise. Brings a sense of familiarity and comfort. Good to see you're still doing what you love
Wow those magic arms/suction cup setup is awesome. Might have to get something like those as I’ve always felt like the driving scenes were the most difficult to capture well (and safely!). The first scene with the light beaming through the clouds was beautiful.
I don't know if I have to apologise to you for saying this Thomas. But it's quit enjoyable too see you tossed around by the wind like that whilst you try to take a picture. :)
Great video again Tom. To quote Mike Lane (wildlife photographer and RUclipsr) " the photographer who goes out in the rain doesn't get as wet as the photographer who stays at home thinks he will". You certainly made the most of the conditions and it looks like you were really enjoying yourself.
Your level of dedication knows no bounds. As miserable as you all look, you make it seem like it's the best place to be. Thanks for always taking us along!
Even at the mercy of the elements, great photos!! Thanks for braving the elements and sharing the results! Love your videos! Look forward to them every time!!
First impressions- dude your solo video production quality is just awesome! While the scenery in storm conditions may not be perfect, your camera work is top notch. I’d blame the weather on Adam, it matched his grumpiness.
Wonderful stuff. Loved the images and the banter and even the suffering. Because, after all, a prize hard won is better than the one that falls in your lap.
For me the small cluster of trees in front of the mountain has it all .... incredible texture and light on the trunks and foliage, the sprigs of grass in foreground and the burst of light on the mountain... superb!!
Well persevered with not just the photo-taking, but the video making for this vid as well! 🌧 😅 Congrats on 500k mate. Huge inspiration. Your hard work paying off 👌🏼
Great to see a man happy in his work. ☔☔ And you thought the weather in Whitley Bay was bad. 🤣🤣 Like the images that you did get. Keep up the good work.
Thomas, I just finished watching the three Scotland road trip videos. They are so good. Congratulations on having a beer sponsor! As usual your videos are humorous, informative, and emotional. I think I would watch them even if I weren't a photographer. Keep at it.
Looks like your friends had a wee dram of the proper remedy for cold wet Scotland. NW Scotland is magical and miserable combined. Very good video. I liked your picture of the small group of trees in the foreground the most. Lone trees give more Scottish feels.
There is really something powerful about that shot with the three trees and the mountain behind. Great one! Was really worth waiting for the great lights and sky behind. And congratulations for 500k subscribers :)
I love weather like that but have not been brave enough to shoot in it. Congratulations on hitting 500,000 subscribers. That’s quite the accomplishment and a reward for your obvious hard work. The double rainbow was special to see.
impressed the camera didn't blow over at 9min, not even a shake. lover getting out in a storm so long as its safe. We had storm Barra hit us here in Ireland this week.
Congrats on 500k subscribers Tom. Always looking for Wednesday for quite a few years now since i started following your channel. As always great video and thanks for inspiring everyone 👍👍
The perseverance of a landscape photographer is demonstrated within this weeks video as the images you ended up capturing were fantastic Thomas. Also big congratulations on hitting the 500k in subs too. As a long time follower on your channel it has been great to watch you each week, to go on the journey and to share in your moments and look forward to what's to come in the future
Thanks Thomas, I love the "in the van" drama.09:13 masterful minimalist image, well done, Thomas, lose the daggs (the hangers on) 18:00 a great compositions well done. 20:39 don't you hate it, someone else gets the shot of the trip,
This one remided me of one of the first few videos on your channel SEVERAL years ago. I looked back but did not find it. Sitting in your car on a beach in equally daunting weather. So much more comfortable now in the van. Alwasy entertaining and informative. Thanks
What an epic video! Full of emotions and drama. I love your picture of the smaller group of trees with the nice structure in the mountain behind. Fair play how you reacted to Paul's image of the double rainbow.
That was a lot of fun! Your patience paid off on the small copse of trees with the mountain behind it, beautiful. You seem to be enjoying yourself a lot which is great to see. One of my favorite points in the video is when you're brushing your teeth looking across to the other van. I have no idea why it made me laugh. Keep 'em coming.
Tom got some great shots as usual, but Paul’s shot is really awesome. Amazing how 2 photographers working in close proximity can get such varying results just based on what they were seeking out. Makes you realize how a location can have more potential than you’d initially think and different photographers unlock different aspects. Really liked this video
Welcome to Scottish Highland photography, Thomas! We go out and get every kind of weather thrown at us, but like you, we just put our head down and push on through. So glad you got some great images out of this, and as always came away smiling. Love your channel.

This is so cute
I think you made the most beautiful and cozy van
Immediately you can see the person did it for work, conscientiously, for himself
A double rainbow is hard to beat. Only by being generous and sharing it this way.
We have just returned from a 14-day Scotland photo road trip. 12 of them were rainy. Despite that, we still managed to get a lot of great photos. Scotland is magical... especially the Highlands.
Pine tree shot was still a good one.
Classic Heaton🏴👍🏴👍
Gavin has the power to stop rain - says so in his excellent book ! 😵💫😵🤪
Thomas is a well known photographer, but I always believe his true talent is documentary Videography, or story telling.
I am not discrediting his photography skill, but I would bet he is more videographer than photographer at heart.
His photos are absolutely beautiful, but his videos are outstanding.
Love the infectious enthusiasm even while you suffer for your art.
Your photographs were very good but the shot of the double rainbows was a shot of a life time.
Beautiful images mate and thanks so much for including my image man 😀✌
Scotland in that weather is beautiful. I'm an Aussie but lived in the UK for a few years with my wife and son.

I've been thinking about how much happier and positive Tom seems lately too - great to see him back enjoying himself 👍
Great! I loved the storm kicking things. What's more incredible for me is the VIDEO'D banter, how you keep the camera rolling, so much fun Tom.
It's amazing to think that when you look at a landscape image in print you often have no idea of the lengths the photographer went to to capture that image.

excellent video great company and the bad weather is a bonus some times
Thomas Heaton... in his element... in the elements. Love it!
Whoo hooo! 500k. Subs. Congratulations
It's not always about the photos, but the all to relatiable journey to get them. Keep that content rolling. 🤩
Congratulations with 500k subscribers🎉😃
Thomas Heaton's excellent adventure. Three troopers come home with prizes. What an outing.
Lost track of your channel for a couple years and happened on it this morning. Was a nice surprise. Brings a sense of familiarity and comfort. Good to see you're still doing what you love
Massive congratulations bonnie lad on the half a million subs! You deserve every last one of them
Action Photographer. You're like a superhero or something. I loved this video
Wind and Rain hitting a vehicle. Lovely sound.
Wow those magic arms/suction cup setup is awesome. Might have to get something like those as I’ve always felt like the driving scenes were the most difficult to capture well (and safely!). The first scene with the light beaming through the clouds was beautiful.
Ah the life of the landscape photographer. Enjoyed this in the dry, warm comfort of my home.
Love both of yours with the trees and also Paul's double-rainbow. Well done guys for enduring the storm
In the words of the 'Gav'....."Magnifeekwa" Tom. Congratulations on your 500K, well deserved. 👌
And congratulations on the 500k, nobody does it better than you!
And my calm time begins with Toms photography video
Watching this with my wife and kid while it‘s raining outside
The Torridons never disappoint, quite an exceptional and challenging place in any weather. Polite reminder the Scottish word for Tarn is Lochan.
I don't know if I have to apologise to you for saying this Thomas. But it's quit enjoyable too see you tossed around by the wind like that whilst you try to take a picture. :)
Great video again Tom.
To quote Mike Lane (wildlife photographer and RUclipsr) " the photographer who goes out in the rain doesn't get as wet as the photographer who stays at home thinks he will". You certainly made the most of the conditions and it looks like you were really enjoying yourself.
Those images were jewels well worth the battering elements.
Your level of dedication knows no bounds. As miserable as you all look, you make it seem like it's the best place to be. Thanks for always taking us along!
Even at the mercy of the elements, great photos!! Thanks for braving the elements and sharing the results! Love your videos! Look forward to them every time!!
That frog toggs top has been the only thing i’ve found to truly stay dry on the trail…good choice
Half a million subscribers Thomas, well done!!!
Paul’s shot is indeed epic!
But Thomas, your shots are awesome
As well !
Wonderful images and video !!! Thanks Paul for the rainbow image.
First impressions- dude your solo video production quality is just awesome! While the scenery in storm conditions may not be perfect, your camera work is top notch. I’d blame the weather on Adam, it matched his grumpiness.
That’s what l like about Scotland, you get the real grotty filthy weather, then it gives you the stunning beautiful landscape!
Lovely shots Thomas ....... rainbows always steal the show
Nice shot of Beinn Dearg.
Your video production quality in 4K is absolutely outstanding. Loved the vlog.
this is what dedication means. Liked all the images
Congratulations on 500k subs. Well deserved. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
The patch of trees with the light on them with the mountain in the background is beautiful. glad you stuck around long enough to get that.
love Pauls shot but like Thomas last two photo's way more. Just something minimal about them and reflect the mood so well.
Always look forward to Wednesday. Thanks
Paul rocks 😉👌, you've got few bad ones too, just joking good ones 😉🙃
I love the boulders and the golden grasses.
You are an inspirational person. Love how you love what you do.
congratulations on 500K!!!!!! thats no small feat good sir!
Wonderful stuff. Loved the images and the banter and even the suffering. Because, after all, a prize hard won is better than the one that falls in your lap.

Yes, Paul wins, and you all suffered for your art. Nice story, and congrats of 500K subs. You've worked hard for it. 👍 🥂
Well persevered with not just the photo-taking, but the video making for this vid as well! 🌧 😅
Congrats on 500k mate. Huge inspiration. Your hard work paying off 👌🏼
Great to see a man happy in his work. ☔☔ And you thought the weather in Whitley Bay was bad. 🤣🤣 Like the images that you did get. Keep up the good work.
Wonderful vid. No pain, no gain. No offense but hats off to Paul.
Thomas, I just finished watching the three Scotland road trip videos. They are so good. Congratulations on having a beer sponsor! As usual your videos are humorous, informative, and emotional. I think I would watch them even if I weren't a photographer. Keep at it.
Not in to photography, but I can't help but watch! Love it 👍
Looks like your friends had a wee dram of the proper remedy for cold wet Scotland. NW Scotland is magical and miserable combined. Very good video. I liked your picture of the small group of trees in the foreground the most. Lone trees give more Scottish feels.
Excellent video as always. I love the soft light after a rain. Learning things about weather from you too. JoAnne
Awesome video capturing Scotland loved the picture with the three trees, great
the photo gods rewarded Paul for sleeping curled up against the wall! very enjoyable vid
That initial view out the window looks like the setting for many-a-horror-movie!!!
Fantastic video, I really enjoyed it and I could see the joy in all three of you despite the challenges. Cheers, Duade
There is really something powerful about that shot with the three trees and the mountain behind. Great one! Was really worth waiting for the great lights and sky behind.
And congratulations for 500k subscribers :)
Your trees were nice but wow, that double rainbow Paul got!
I love weather like that but have not been brave enough to shoot in it. Congratulations on hitting 500,000 subscribers. That’s quite the accomplishment and a reward for your obvious hard work. The double rainbow was special to see.
The sound in that insane wind is incredible! So clear. Well done!

Thanks a lot. Glad you have been enjoying the channel 👍
Congrats on the 500k Thomas.Great to see that cold wet but beautifully changable weather. And all the great shots.
Thoroughly enjoying this series! Rain and wind seemed just crazy; way to persevere. Those suction cups were very cool. Looking forward to more.
I'm not sure what's the best way to do this, so I'll do it here. Congrats on 500k, mate! Well done and well deserved!
Thanks Thomas, I love the "in the van" drama.09:13 masterful minimalist image, well done, Thomas, lose the daggs (the hangers on) 18:00 a great compositions well done. 20:39 don't you hate it, someone else gets the shot of the trip,

That GFX makes magic out of dim light.
What a Shot from Paul... Amazing!!
I think you got some quite nice shots, but it is the adventure of getting them that makes them speical.
Paul's image is just incredible. But, really the effort put into this video. Plus the 3rd and 4th image, Amazing.
Your vids are the highlight of my week.
Always looking forward to these ...Highlight of my week!! Happy Heaton Wednesday!!
That was a lot of fun! Your patience paid off on the small copse of trees with the mountain behind it, beautiful. You seem to be enjoying yourself a lot which is great to see.

I can’t believe Paul passed up a chance up cuddle up to uncle grumpy 😂
Loved the suction cups segment
Only halfway through but this is the best video of the year for me :) Absolutely love it. And Adams clothes.. ROFL..
Welcome to Scottish Highland photography, Thomas! We go out and get every kind of weather thrown at us, but like you, we just put our head down and push on through. So glad you got some great images out of this, and as always came away smiling. Love your channel.
Absolute superbe action video. Continue that perfect job Thomas.
