The night sky over Rannoch Loch tends to be generally brilliant when the clouds are out of the way. I like to get the camera pointing upward with the tress in view for scale, the campfire always gives the leaves and branches a brilliant orange glow adding to shot. I made a time […]

Glasgow lockdown part two is upon us so it’s back to cycling with the camera, although this time it’s wet and muddy now that we’re into winter. This season brings some sunshine, but it also brings grey sky and often flat boring light, Sunday was one of those days, I did manage to get a […]

During the strangest days of recent history I was fortunate enough to be able to safely take my daily exercise walking from my house to heading through the city centre of Glasgow. These are some of the photos from a silent city, the silver lining is apparent in the ability to see and take photos […]

When the cold winter evening come in they bring with them good and bad points, bad point, it’s cold, good point hours of darkness to experiment with long exposure photography with lights and burning wire wool.

Photos from a trip to Rannoch Loch, near Pitlochry and through the Tummel Valley. A few days camping on the bay near the west of the loch on the north shore. Fantastic spring weather, warm sunshine with a slight breeze and at times the water was still and like a mirror.

As always the fireworks in Glasgow Green were fantastic. Colourful explosions in the sky! It’s always hit or miss with these sort of things, the weather plays a huge part, ideally you want a pleasant evening but a bit of wind is always welcome to blow away the smoke because after the first few you […]
