  • This is video 1 in a landscape photography series filmed over a 5 day period in Scotland. I took my camper van and drove north across the border after having seen one of the most promising weather forecasts in living memory; a huge snow dump followed by high pressure! Game on. In this video I take things slow and explore the wide expanse of space that is Rannoch Moor. I hope you enjoy the video. x

    Ah, and once again your joy and peace in being out in the wilds looking at beautiful light shines through, and transfers itself to all us people watching. Your choice of music in your edits really sets the tone. Also your body language, which is relaxed, calm, with a quiet excitement. This goes out into the world, and changes everyone who experiences it. You are making the world a better place, helping us all value the joy of a quiet day outside in the fresh air.

    Thomas, your afternoon panorama is easily one of my favourites! With the light on the hills, moody sky above and the grove of trees in the right third of the frame - tied together with the band of light running across it all in the valley. I don't know how it can get any better. Your patience really paid off! Fantastic!

  • @meredithpottery
    @meredithpottery 5 лет назад

    Just wonderful, Thomas. Congratulations on making the most of your locations. Your photographs are more beautiful than the place itself!
    At some point, could you take a moment and explain your love of the square crop? Stay warm, well and safe! And thanks!

  • @shanefiddle

    I found your comment about feeling a little disappointed at the end of your day very interesting - especially since it was a day of such beautiful images. There is a lesson there for all us artists, about how our ideas of what we want, our dreams of how things will be, can become our greatest source of suffering. I can also see that you managed to really enjoy your day and make some stunning photos, so you didn't let your per-conceived ideas get in the way of the joy and beauty available in the actual experience. Thanks for sharing your journey!

    just so stunning when I compare them with the images I have taken it makes you
    wont to give up photography.

Also, why try and degrade someone who is actively trying to encourage?

    The fact that it's not fully covered with snow, causing that clean effect your mentioning, I feel only adds interest and grit to the image. Again, superb work with this image and thanks for a lovely video!

Hope that makes sense 😁 Anyway, stunning photography, as always - that first image is just exquisite.

    If it's a lone tree in that area that you are after, there is a beautiful one just a little further back. Follow the West Highland Way from Bridge of Orchy up over Màm Carraigh, and there is a beautiful lone tree at around NN286411, overlooking Loch Tulla, just before the Way starts to descend to Inveroran.
