After a long hike through the Scottish Highlands, we stumbled into the owners of this house who were shooting partridge. They offered us to stay for dinner (which was partridge pie) but I settled on just taking a photo instead!

travelers stories about Bridge in Glenfinnan Viaduct View Point, United Kingdom

Bridge in Glenfinnan Viaduct View Point, United Kingdom

  52 km from Scottish Highlands


I’m a huge fan of HP so visiting the Glenfinnan viaduct was at the very top of my bucket list for our trip to Scotland. I was hoping to see the steam train but unfortunately it didn’t ride on the weekend. I was a little disappointed in myself for not checking in advance but Scotland’s weather made it up with us. We knew there was a storm coming up and it came from the hills behind the viaduct. So we really saw the storm coming for us. It was absolutely stunning and I’m glad I managed to get this dramatic shot. We didn’t get soaked, we made it back to the car just in time :-)

Loch in Glencoe, United Kingdom

The Scottish Highlands in the early morning, the weather wasn’t the best but the views definitely were. The clouds came rolling in over the mountains for the entirety of the journey to Fort William. The most photos I’ve taken in one sitting for sure.

travelers stories about Hill in Glencoe, United Kingdom

Hill in Glencoe, United Kingdom

  54 km from Scottish Highlands


Scotland is well known for its highlands consisting of lochs and mountains. However most of the time the weather there is cloudy and rainy. Upon my first visit to this picturesque place I was lucky enough to experience the scenery in this beautiful weather and managed to get a picture of this landscape with hikers in the foreground.

Our b&b host took us to this pearl in a December morning, just before we had to catch our bus back to Edinburgh. It was the greenest and most peaceful place on earth.

travelers stories about Hill in Glen Coe, United Kingdom

Hill in Glen Coe, United Kingdom

  56 km from Scottish Highlands


You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and exhaustion. Then, when you’re no longer thinking ahead, each step isn’t just a means to an end but a unique event in itself. This leaf has jagged edges, this rock looks loose, the snow is closer. These are things you should notice anyway. To live only for some future goal is shallow. It’s the sides of the mountain which sustain life, not the top. Here’s where things grow. But of course without the top you can’t have any sides. It’s the top that defines the sides.

Watercourse in Glen Etive, United Kingdom

  56 km from Scottish Highlands


We were coming back from Glen Etive after photographing the wild deer and 2 guys were getting their kayaks ready to go into the water. I asked if I took take some videos of them with my DJI Spark and they Kindly said yes. I wasn’t sure if I was actually going to be able to get the drone in the air as it was extremely windy. Luckily I got some footage and a few photos as they went down the rapids.

travelers stories about Canoeing in Loch Morlich, United Kingdom

Canoeing in Loch Morlich, United Kingdom

  60 km from Scottish Highlands


This loch is a short distance from our campsite. Despite living in the UK, I’ve never explored Scotland until now. The 9 hour drive was definitely worth it. This scenery is breathtaking and like nothing I’ve seen before. This particular loch had really quiet areas, as if you are at one with nature. On the other side is a beach, cafe and water sports hire making it perfect for families. It reminded me of trips to Cornwall but this ‘sea’ is surrounded by breathtaking mountains.

On the way to the Summit of Ben Macdui we went from cold and wet to very cold and full of rime, ice and snow the closer we got to the summit. Happily the sun was out and thus it was a fine day out in the hills!

One of my favourite places. Glen Etive in the Scottish Highlands is full of deer and beautiful landscapes. It allows you to have peace and quiet and just chill out with the most important thing to me and my photography - the great outdoors.

Hill in Scotland, United Kingdom

  76 km from Scottish Highlands


This is one of the most spectacular mountain on the road towards Isle of Skye. The mountain top is treeless and I really love its texture. I will back this place in winter when the snow falling and covering it. I can imagine how fantastic it will be at that time.

Wildlife in Alladale Wilderness Reserve, United Kingdom

  84 km from Scottish Highlands


Up in the Scottish Highlands these majestic animals roam freely within their landscape. Docile, loud and unapologetically stubborn yet beautiful all the same. This one labelled as ‘100’ was caught just before a loud ‘moo’ in my direction.

This was captured as I was leaning out of my car window driving through the Scottish Highlands. It was one of the first scenes I saw as we arrived on the Isle of Skye - little did I know that I’d see landscape like this around every single bend in the winding roads. Incredible place.
