- This is a behind the scenes vlog as well as the night footage I captured at Dalquharran castle in Dailly(south west Scotland) from sunset to sunrise.
The castle is believed to be haunted by a woman who killed herself on these grounds.
Keep an eye out on the ground floor(left hand side) during the fog between 3am - 4am when no-one was around and please feel free to give an explanations in the comment section below.
Dalquharran Castle is a category A listed building in South Ayrshire, Scotland, designed by Robert Adam and completed around 1790. The first recorded lord of the property which already included a castle, was Gilbert Kennedy, as stated in a 1474 Charter for the nearby Crossraguel Abbey. The estate was later owned by the Kennedy family for centuries.
Best film I've seen of Dalquharran. It is a national disgrace that this fine building (and its older sister not far away) is left rotting away.
Very kind of you sir, I’ve heard it is apparently being turned into a hotel and golf resort, which is hopefully true rather than just gossip
@@amacmedia3221 Sadly no, that plan died the death and a local farmer has bought the place and land I believe. It would make a great country house for the Scottish Government (like Chequers in England). I've posted a message for you on the Maybole FB page. I'd like a price for a Pole Star shot of Baltersan: ruclips.net/video/QgezVbFQAEU/видео.html
@@JamesBrown-mt5ru that’s such a shame that won’t be happening.
Thank you, I’ll message you with a price
@@JamesBrown-mt5ru should you want a star trail rather than a time lapse, I could give you a price and do the shot later in the year
Wow! Just spectacular. I’ve been to Scotland a couple of times and my heart belongs there. Thank you for this so thoroughly enjoyed all of this.🏴❤️🙏
Thank you, that’s so kind of you to say so.
There’s plenty videos showing parts of Scotland on my channel which you are welcome to view 🏴 ❤️ 🙏🏻
Beautiful time lapse of the castle with the stars, clouds and mist.
Thank you so much
I had no idea what the shoot would look like when you were setting it up. In the end it was fabulous. It’s brilliant how you had it framed in your mind and then brought it to life. The interior lights really added a lot. Thanks for doing this and sharing it
Thank you, that’s very kind of you. The lighting is something I’m looking to try more of this year so I’m quite pleased how this turned out considering how big a building it is
Stunning work as usual Al , absolute respect for putting an idea into your head and bringing it to life the way you do , the fog rolling in on the time lapse brought a mysterious edge to the footage , very well suited location for your style of photography
Thank you so much, the fog and lights effect was a rather unexpected bonus after missing out on the Milky Way overhead, which was due to happen at that time
The entire video was fantastic, really enjoyed and appreciated the efforts and skills it took.
Very kind of you, thank you for your kind words
I've never been in this place, but it's really amazing!Compliments for your work!
Very kind of you, and definitely worth a visit if you get the chance
Wow Alasdair, that was amazing, especially seeing the backlit fog rays coming through the castle. Really enjoyed that mate, cheers for sharing and putting all the hard work into it.
Very kind of you, I have to say the way the fog and lights worked together was quite a bonus after missing out in the Milky Way because of the fog
@@amacmedia3221 yeah I totally agree Alasdair, it’s a fantastic video, I thoroughly enjoyed watching it.
@@LawrenceScottLSPIX really appreciated, as I prefer being behind the camera rather than infront 🙂
I love how polite you are ☺️
Haha that must be my vlogging voice 😁
Great photos. Thank you.😊
Very kind of you, thank you
Beautiful building, and your time lapse was amazing. Cheers 👍
Very kind of you, it is a stunning building. I may do another time lapse here as it’s such a spectacular setting
@@amacmedia3221 I’ll look forward to that. Perhaps you could do the front next time. Cheers 👍
@@gordonmculloch4904 the front doesn’t lend itself to capturing the Milky Way overhead at this time of year I’m afraid. I have though shot a time lapse on f the front side after I made this particular video which is on my channel
Gorgeous photography!
Very kind of you
I like this abandoned castle. From Indonesia.
It’s an incredible building
An amazing video! I subscribed. Thank you!!
Thank you, that’s very kind of you
Beautiful! Just a pity about the fences and the rubbish laying around...
Thank you, yes that is a shame
Cool track setup
Thank you
That was really an interesting shoot, I remember being taken here as a boy with my cousins, nearly 40 yrs ago ! Place not changed much at all. Thanks Cameron
Thanks Cameron, yes it probably got the same open plan feel about it as it did when you visited with your cousins
this is truly amazing Alasdair, love it.
Thank you, that’s very kind of you
Great stuff yet again Alisdair, the shots with the mist and the lights from inside shining out should be quite spectacular by themselves.
I have to admit missing the Milky Way above, as I had planned, was definitely made up for the way the fog and lights worked together
Amazing , I visit here weekly as I'm only in Kirkmichael. Fantastic video .thanks for sharing.
My first visit was in January of this year, I went there in February to shoot this but I was clouded out, so I was back there on Thursday evening to shoot this, loved visiting it, so I can understand why you go there every week
Amazing always wanted to get up there when walking through Dailly 👍
Thank you, it’s definitely worth the wee detour
Time lapse is amazing, I visited the place on Easter Sunday, knew nothing about the castle other than I saw it on google maps.
It’s a fantastic place to visit
Sorry for ruining your time lapse big man, the fact the castle was lit up never clicked with my drunk self. Great work none the less!
No problem mate, I quite enjoyed the surprise of seeing you when I edited my footage, it’s a great place
Fabulous film of a very special place.
Very much appreciated
A just stay out road from here and never been would like to but looks nice x
I’m hoping to get back for another through the night shoot, you should definitely visit, it’s a spectacular place
Quality footage alisdair well done mate
Very much appreciated, thanks pal
The inside of that castle is amazing, I went there a while ago.
It certainly is, well worth a 2nd visit if you get the chance
Wow!!!!!
Many thanks
Stunning video! Been out there a few times with the drone and camera. Great work 👍🏻
Thank you, I could imagine a drone would be brilliant there
@@amacmedia3221 would be interested in your camera settings for a time lapse like this. Do you use aperarure priority?
@@ScottOnTheHills settings are manual not aperture priority and programmed into an intervelometer ahead of the shoot as I’ve learnt along the way, plenty practice I suppose.
Your kit might work on aperture priority so it’s always worth giving it a try
Loved it. Nice to see and hear what goes into making these shoots.
Would have been cool to see the Bumblebee going for a midnight drive around the building, hahaha (probably not possible with all the debris on the ground)
As for the 3am Shadow maker.....lets leave that to ones imagination.
Thank you, I wasn’t sure if me talking too much would work.
Taking the van would have been great as somewhere cosy to rest up during the shoot lol, it might make an appearance yet 😊
Nice 👍
Thank you
@@amacmedia3221
Oh no sir, thank you…that’s top notch stuff.
Looks like you have a bit of a laugh n’all…lucky dog ya.
I’ll throw ya a sub sir, thanks again 👍
@@calgacusofcaledonia much appreciated, I’ll hopefully have something pretty cool to shoot in a month or so if my test shoot next week works out
great stuff,
Thank you 😊
My family & I visited here 2 days ago (15th June 21) whilst looking back at my photos yesterday I noticed from the front & the back of the house 3rd window in on the left what appears to be a womanly figure standing there. Which prompted me to search for further info which lead me here. First photo I took was from the back of the house 3rd window in on the left. 2nd photo from the front of the house 3rd window in on the right, the shape I see appears to be facing the camera on both shots, very creepy! Really enjoyed this video!
Thank you for watching, and what an amazing experience you had, probably best to have noticed later in your pictures rather than at the time of taking them. Was it the ground floor that this figure appeared?
@@amacmedia3221 yes the ground floor, exact same window you see the shadow in on your video. Yes I'm pleased I didn't look at the photos whilst there! Although my husband wants to go back now. We did hear some very spooky noises & a few loud bangs. We didn't stay too long as the kids got creeped.
@@ingridpeebles07 I’m hoping to go back for another Milky Way attempt but the more I hear stories the more spooky it becomes, I’ve since found out that 3am - 4am is known as witches hour, and that was the time on my camera that had the movement at the windows
@@amacmedia3221 ahh yes the delightful witches hour. Your shots were amazing! I'm more than happy to send you the photos if you want to have a look?
@@ingridpeebles07 that would be fabulous.
My email is: amacmediaphoto@gmail.com
Me and my mates live there so we visit the castle a lot and the stuff we've heard is scary ad
It’s an amazing place, I have only heard about a white lady story, I might do a Halloween shoot one day
I'm visiting Ayr next week and want to visit this place. Can you tell me the easiest way to get here? Got two under 10s with me. Thanks
Amazing video! What equipment do you use ?
Hi Emma, very kind of you. I used a Nikon dslr and a 14mm lens for this, the camera is about 8 yrs old. I’m still hoping to go back this year and shoot this again, hopefully without the fog this year 😂
@@amacmedia3221 thank you! I am the same I use a Nikon d5300 I think next year I might get a new camera.
The quality you get is amazing!
@@emmaxo5083 very much appreciated, I’m happy to help if we ever end up at the same location at the same time
@@amacmedia3221 thank you! ❤️
Here is an idea! Raze both Castles! They are an eyesore and a blight on the landscape.
I don’t think they spoil the landscape, but that’s just my thoughts
went here while on holiday what a wonderful place even did I vlog i think lol inside is spooky
I fully agree, what a place, it’s a strange experience shooting here after dark lol
Who currently owns the castle?
It’s rumoured to been bought by a consortium but nothing has ever been developed
@@amacmedia3221 Wow thank you so much! I have a degree in Historic Preservation and Restoration. So Obviously I’m drawn to places like this. I only wish I had the funds to bring this place back to life.
@@Brimbles2 wouldn’t it be an amazing place to fully restore
@@amacmedia3221 Absolutely!!!!!
@@Brimbles2 if you ever get the opportunity to own this, I’d love to document the restoration 😊
I’m hoping to return for another through the night shoot
