    What a beautiful adventure! One aspect of photography I love is all the adventures I go on using photography as a reason :-)

    Superb crystal clear photos and videos Victoria. Going to put Isle of May on my must do in Scotland list as it looks beautiful. Loved the pictures of the birds that look like a photo and then they suddenly move and it’s a video😳😂. Would recommend a visit to the isle of Staffa if you haven’t been there before as the puffins there are beautiful and you can have a sing in Fingals Cave which I did and cleared it out all of the tourists. 👍😂😂

    Wow. I've watch many of the beautiful places you visit and was wondering if you ever tried astrophotography on these amazing places you visit. I can only imagine how amazing some of the places would look like with the Milkyway on them or Star Trails, light pantting ect... But please if you do, do it safely or with a companion if possible. I would help but you are far from the US. lol. But seriously, keep up the beautiful work you do. You have a lot of admirers here of your work!!!🤗

    Very nice video doing an activity I love in a beautiful location. Something I would personally appreciate to see is your exposure settings. Since you display your kit the settings could help someone like me to determine whether a piece of kit ( like the 2K Fuji lens ) is worth a look and it's capabilities.

    • @wildandfreevictoria
      @wildandfreevictoria  24 дня назад

      Thank you very much! I actually normally post all the metadata on all my videos - check out my other ones and you will see. But I just didn't the time or mental capacity to sit doing it this time as it takes far too long but if there is a particular photo you would like to know the settings of then just let me know and I will reply on here 🙂✌🏻

    Beautiful location and wonderful captures... consider yourself lucky! Even if you didn't get the ones you hoped for. But we can't force nature, it doesn't owe us - and that's the beauty of it! Just keep believing some day it will work out and in the meantime keep enjoying the moment (-;
