  • Landscape photography in the rain can be beautiful, but roadtripping in a small self build camper van in the rain is not as much fun. In this video I visit the north west of Scotland to enjoy some autumn photography with my Fuji GFX 50r. 10% off your first Squarespace website or domain: www.squarespace.com/heaton

    I don’t want to put a time marker on the crude, yet sophisticated, humor. It was perfect! I’m surprised there aren’t more comments.

    The mountains swirl water
    from their high lochs, It comes down
    in fraying threads.

    I was expecting Adam to come trundling through your first composition underneath the arch of branches. Guess I've been watching Gavin's channel too much. Fabulous images Thomas as always.

    The panoramic of the group of trees are my favorite of this video. Simple and a warm fall feel to it.

    I went through that same pointless gate and sat under that copse of trees in the summer. It's a lovely 5 mile loop from the road. So many fabulous views. The loch is ringed with water lilies in the summer. Loved these images. I'm waiting for the kids to grow up so I can get out in the autumn months.

    When the highlands get that wet I usually head for the coast. Big seas, rocks and bays with islands... Not to mention river mouths and fishing boats galore.

    Love this.
    1. I live in the Scottish Highlands and laughed when you drove 2 miles and the weather was different. Yep that's classic Highlands for you.
    2. Glen Affric is just stunning. All year round. Just bring insect repellant.
    3. Torridon is epic
    4. I recommend Glen Orchy and Sma' Glen too. Lesser known Glens compared to Affric and Coe but well worth a visit for moody weather mountains and forests.

    Great video Thomas. The Scottish weather sure brings some nice treats. The rain intensifies colours, and a surprise pop of sun can be such magic.

    I really like these videos, bedding down in a nice comfy van in terrible weather like this seems like the best thing ever!
    And I really like all the different filming angles, the effort that goes into this to make all these scenes look so smooth and natural must be time consuming! Things like driving off down the road for the shot, and then coming back again to collect the camera, etc.
    Fair play..

All three, really lovely. The whole video was very watchable too! Enjoyed it very much.

    I watched you walk up to that gate carefully open walk through and close it, al the while I’m thinking to myself there’s no fence. Then I almost spit my coffee out as you ran back around it to grab the camera. Then what about 30 seconds later you made me wonder if Gavin was perhaps hiding off frame instead of Adam.
    But let’s not forget the great images. Image 1 didn’t work for me I think it was just to busy, image 2 very nice but image 3 I loved the pano!
