In a chaotic world of pain, grief and sorrow, your film gave me half an hour of peace, tranquillity and inspiration. Thank you, Nigel, for bringing this world of snow and beauty to me. I can't wait for next week's instalment.
Thanks - glad you enjoyed it
Amen to that
Hi Nigel. I know this area really well, having spent many weeks up there walking, climbing or on my bike. That first spot you stopped at was proper plantation until just a few years ago with dense forest right up to the side of the road you were walking up. If it had still been like that, you probably wouldn't have stayed long enough to have discovered the wee lochan. The current landowner cut down all the non-native tree species and only left the indigenous ones behind (the few that you were looking at) and he is now letting that whole area return to it's natural state, which will take many years. It would be great to see Caledonian Pine back there in my lifetime. Hats off to him!
Nigel this current series in the Cairngorms has been one of your best ever, I know you Photograph all over the world but there is something about this latest series that's just superb, you ask for ideas for future Videos but seriously "It can't get much better than this" It's mind blowing content and quality that cannot be beaten, The best Photography Channel on RUclips by a country Mile by the best Photographer, Regards, Colin.
Wow, thank you!
the photography side of RUclips has to be one of the most wholesome
Haha ‘don’t let me take too many shots!’… when you’re taking shots like these… they are superb, each and every one of them. Nigel, please take as many as you wish! They’re bringing us such joy, capturing the magic of the moment. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm liking these ... back in the "NIgel" groove again!
stunning scenery and some fantastic images !
Loving your Cairngorms series some stunning images Nigel, some of your best images you take and videos you make I always feel are in the UK your passion really shows through more. Your work is amazing and buy far one of the best Landscape photographers on RUclips.

Gorgeous images, Nigel! Kudos to you!
Wow - some parts of the world are absolutely stunning!
Great series of shots. Thanks for taking us along, looking forward to next week.
Nigel, amazing photos, best video yet! Glad you found your trees!
Such a beautiful place and beautiful photos! Thanks, Nigel!
You are a great inspiration to me and my friend who go out shooting together, we end up saying to each other now when were in that moment, the quiet moment, when we both say "it doesn't get any better than this". I do enjoy your teachings on composition but this series has been a great one for showing about getting out there and taking those shots, not being afraid to press the button. Love this series!
Fabulous conditions and some beautiful shots. Thanks for uploading. 😊
Wow! So beautiful! Thank you for this great moment of tranquility and inspiration!

Absolutely magnificent, Nigel! Not only are your photos and videos breathtaking, but your ongoing narrative gives us all a glimpse into how you seek out and find locations that offer such wonderful views of nature. Thank you!
You make it all look easy but you REALLY DO work hard to create your spectacular photos, thanks so much for sharing the journey AND you wisdom!

Amazing photographs, thanks for sharing. 😀🙏
Awesome and beautiful 😀
Spectacular video my fiend,nice work!
You did wonderful work with each opportunity. I can't wait to move back where it snows.
This Cairngorms series of yours is absolutely wonderful. What a beautiful location, adventure and images. Thank you.
That weather! And in Scotland, who'd have thought?!
Absolutely fantastic scenes
It’s so inspiring to share your excitement and joy at being energised by a beautiful landscape. Thank you for your video and the beautiful images.
A lot of nice scenery in this vid. Thanks for sharing them.
I know I usually don't comment on the videos, but I do watch all of them. I love these snow videos, love seeing the beautiful snowy landscape, the gorgeous trees and of course your fantastic images! Looking forward to next week's video!
Again an amazing video Nigel. Lovely to see you explore that beautiful nature. I love to see a video in the snow. You inspire me to take pictures from nature and here in flat Netherlands it’s inspiring to see you scouting the mountains. But here is also fine nature. Thanks and keep on inspiring us.
Great little adventure you're on there. Enjoy the more casual approach to the images as well. I guess it makes your photography a bit more relatable. Your enthusiasm is an inspiration as always. Keep up the great work in 2024!
Nigel - once again - BRILLIANT! Thank you for the inspirational vid and I'm looking forward to what you do next in the Cairngorms. Thanks!
Gotta love those headless chicken moments that happens when we’re out.
Sometimes it’s the most fun.
Thanks for sharing Nigel
Love this series...i could do with some of your chaos in my photography lol. Brilliant images Nigel.
14:02 Nigel: "I have this fear of messing up now"
The RUclips audience: "LOOK BEHIND YOU!!!!" 😂
ha ha - I got that shot...
A fantastic video Nigel. Thanks for sharing. I was out shooting on the same day as you - I saw you packing up by the roadside. What epic conditions we were treated to. Hope to get a video uploaded soon too, but yours are at another level. Thanks for the inspiration. Si
Loved your little dance of joy once you found your composition of the trees by the loch haha
I am subscribing!, as this was an enjoyable vid.
Another great video, thank you so much Nigel. You inspire me to get off the couch, pick up the camera and head outdoors.
Hey Nigel, I love Winterwonderland photo’s, so I love this series. Beautiful trees, Mountains, the wind blowing the snow from the trees was spectacular. Can’t wait to see you’re new video next week, have a good week.👋
Brilliant 👏
What can I say but “Wow!” This was a beautiful winter wonderland. You really got a lot of excellent photos. This video had my jaw dropping. Great job!
Stunning photos, Nigel, fantastic scenery, and after half an hour, I am now cooler. 30degC today🇦🇺 Look forward to more snowy images!
Fantastic Video~ Beautiful photos ~ Loved the Grandfather tree. Nigel " I love photography ~ I really do" Yes, we can tell! Hope your back is feeling better.
Personally I always enjoy your ‘in the field’ videos the most, because it inspires me to go out and shooting! BTW, I received your Seascapes book this week, beautifully made, also very inspiring since I live 5 minutes from the Dutch beaches. Thank you for being my landscape photography mentor for the last four years.
I had exactly that problem yesterday. The mist and fog rolled in and I headed out to a location knew well. On arrival it was obvious that my location was almost out of the mist and fog. I gambled and went for it, with limited time I pushed on hoping to find the mist further into the wood. On the drive home I could see that I should have been on the other side of the wood for the 'best' conditions. However, when I reviewed the images i had 6 - 8 surprisingly good images that i wouldn't have had if I had bailed. Love this video. Can't wait for next week.
Great series! Although I have not done a lot of winter photography I've always been drawn to images of snow, in paintings as well as photography. Some very beautiful images in these videos.
The reason the mountains in Torridon look bigger, although lower, is that you start at sea level, whereas in the Cairngorms you are already well over 1000 feet up. Also, the Cairngorm hills are much bulkier so the summit is often 5-10 miles away, whereas with the steep hills in Torridon you are only a mile or two away. If you want dramatic mountain views in the Cairngorms you need to work for them, and that means 10 mile or more round trips up the long glens that penetrate the interior. It's nice to see the Cairngorms getting some love this year though, Henry Turner was up there a little while ago too. I often feel they get neglected by photographers.
Magical Nigel 📷👍
loving the pictures
Fantastic video and photos as always Nigel, amazing conditions. I really enjoy the "series" videos that you make, as an expat (now living in Germany) I´m also enjoying your journeys around the UK - but always wish I had started photography when I lived there!
What an incredible location. And the soft light is beautiful. Beautiful shots Nigel. I envy the snow in the North. Its been far too mild in the south. No snow 😑
Absolutely love snow!! and that print at 27:58 is a perfect winter scene!! love it 👌 we just havent had those conditions further South here in North Wales 🤨
Gorgeous compositions and hues. One or two id love to have as feature prints on my walls.
Stunning location and beautiful conditions, great pics.....as Gavin would say, you're having a full on photogasm! lol
Fantastic video and photos 👍❄️
amazing photos👌
Great video and wonderful images - thank you - reminded me a bit of your Yosemite shots from years ago! I must go back to Aviemore, so much potential - if only I had your motivation & talent!
Thank you for the inspiration Nigel. By coincidence, we were at Loch an Eilein a few days after you, and I got almost the same composition that you printed off. This is not by chance I think. It's because I listened to all your excellent advice.
Good morning :)
Love that video - Having the right mindset is as important if not more important that the actual photography skills.
It helps so much to see your "thinking process" in these kinds of videos. You are human as well. You experiment. You rarely but sometimes struggle on the perfect composition.
I'm really looking up to your photography so it helps so much to see you explore.
For a studio idea I'd love to see "how to organize after a photoshoot" - like cleaning gear, backing up images, organizing the bad again. 🙂
Cracking series Nigel , I'm wait for my " it doesn't get better this this " moment
Absolutely stunning video! Images are great. Truly fantastic 30 minutes of entertainment and learning.
Wolfgang
Glad you enjoyed it
I’m on vacation from Michigan in the desert and my friends are laughing that I’m choosing to watch videos about snow. But this was such a fabulous video. And the shot at 16:36 was spectacular. I feel the peace and the joy of that scene.
I've really enjoyed this series of videos Nigel, I knew you were coming up to the NE Scotland, where I live, and hoped when we had the recent snow storms you were getting the images you hoped for. Although I think on the day of filming this video you were in danger of suffering from sever sensory overload! Some spectacular photographs, thank you for sharing. 😄
Fantastic images! Your enthusiasm about life and photography shows through in your images. It’s a pleasure to watch your photography and videos! Cheers, Erik
Thank you so much 😀
Great episodes for today Mr. Nigel, your works are very inspiring for amateur photographers like me. You gave us ideas on how to tale photos on different kinds of environment. Amazing how you were able to work it out in a snowy area. Great photos. Hope to see more of your work on your next video. Hope you can also features landscape photography from a desert place like Qatar.
Truly a winter wonderland. There's a song in there somewhere. Nice video Nigel.
It's so good is not the same as it can't get better than this!
"Problem"…? What "problem?" If only I could have a shoot with such problems! 😂
great video
Beautiful place
Cheers!
