    What amazing shots Paul. I visited the Callanish Stones in 2022 and loved it. I took similar layered shots on the drive there too. We are going back in October, so we are hoping for 2 weeks of drama. You certainly captured the place in all its glory. Brilliant!!

    That was a good watch Paul, good to see what you did before I caught up with you but man that wind was strong, and the milky way! I was laid in bed looking out the window at it right above thinking I am literally 200 yards from the perfect milky way foreground, next thing I remember was my alarm going off, next time though for definite.

    Some great images there again Paul. The Highlands and islands of Scotland are unquestionably my favourite photo location, so I'm quite jealous. I see you're using that funky tripod collar on your lens again. Assuming it's not an original item from the lens manufacturer, who makes it please?
    I've recently switched from full frame Nikon to Fuji for the weight and size advantage. I sort of miss the big Nikons, but I'm getting accustomed to the dinky Fujis now. I'm using the recent sigma 10-18mm f2.8 and the sun stars that gives are pretty neat.

    Great Images Paul,perhaps you would consider doing a video on your camper van, Cost,running costs, insurance,is it worth getting one etc.

  • @timrosenburgh8597
    @timrosenburgh8597 4 месяца назад +1

    Enjoyed the video as usual Paul.
    Definitely a bit windy, but as you would say, no pain no gain.
    Absolutely stunning image's mate.
    I found it difficult to pick my favourite to be honest.
    Look forward to the next one.

    Crackin' shots, although its like shooting fish in a barrel. You can't fail but get good photo's there. The receding hills pano's were particularly impressive. Tell me you went to Carloway Broch this time. Its no distance up the road and makes great shots next to the sea.

    • @paulcomptonpdphotography
      @paulcomptonpdphotography  4 месяца назад

      The only way to fail is bad weather but yer if you make the effort to get to these places its in the bag
