The Forth Rail Bridge from South Queensferry

This was the first time I’d been able to get down and photography in and around South Queensferry. I’ve always wanted to get close to this amazing architectural and engineering marvel. I think I might have picked possibly the coldest and windiest day to spend a few hours there. I could barely feel my face [...]

Shelter

Tried to capture this in the summer but the trees were full of leaves then. Now that it’s winter the leaves have gone and there is a more foreboding feel about the place, especially when the light is overcast.

Stormy Weather (re–edit)

This is a re–edit of a previous photograph that I posted last year. I didn’t think I had managed to get the exposure and contrast the way I wanted and the new image shows the drama more clearly. I think it’s also closer to what I had seen. The heavens opening and the sun breaking [...]

3 Sand Textures and 1 Cloud Texture

Been going through some images lately. Found a couple that I thought would be more use in the public domain than sitting doing nothing on my hard drive. Feel free to use as you wish, although a link or credit would be nice but entirely up to yourselves. Download Link

These were all shot on my phone, which is remarkable considering the image quality you can get these days of such devices. I hope you like them. And if you haven’t already, you should visit Scotland. What [...]

Stormy Weather

A massive weather front moves its way from West to East of Scotland. The weather at this time of the year and in late April always makes for dramatic cloud photographs. This September has been particularly volatile after parts of the UK where hit with the remnants of hurricane Katia which slammed into the Eastern [...]

Triple Storm Weather Front Panorama

I actually captured this image yesterday but only got around to processing it today. It was captured on Monifieth beach in Angus, Scotland. The weather has been pretty crazy lately with lots of potential for dramatic cloud formations and that was what I was hoping to capture when I went down there. It was pretty [...]

Scurdie Ness and Montrose

Scurdie Ness Lighthouse is located near Montrose and was constructed by engineer David A. Stevenson between 1868-1870.

A Walk on the Beach

A mother and her children take a stroll on the beach of Tentsmuir. It’s such a beautiful area and only a few minutes from where I live and fast becoming one of my go-to places when I’ve got some time to myself. A glorious beach on the left and an enchanting forest on the right [...]
