The Buachaille by David Young, on Flickr Not really a landscape photographer - I can count the amount of times I've used a tripod for still photography on my fingers - would be rude to not take a pic here at least once in my life though.

Been busy reprocessing some older shots. All of these were composed around a 2:1 crop but as tastes evolve so do ones choices of aspect ratio and the near letter box look doesn't appeal quite so much as it once did. May 2017 Here's a 5x4 - I'd have liked 4x3 but when trying to crop I couldn't...

One from a trip earlier this year to Glencoe. I wanted to capture something different, and this was a shot I haven't seen from there before. I liked the light coming through but also the rain/hail that had battered me about a minute prior to this shot. Changing Conditions - Glencoe by Thomas...

Bottlenose dolphin - Chanonry Point by David Young, on Flickr Spent a couple of days photographing the Moray Firth dolphins

_DSC4786 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr I grabbed this on a morning workshop last week. The best reflections and light were down on Rannoch Moor. I couldn't resist guiding the client to this spot at the edge of Lochan na Stainge and once they were set up taking a few of my own with the light...

The Flying Scotsman 60103 paid a rare visit to the Scottish Highland line on May 10 2019. The world famous A3 Gresley Pacific steam locomotive hauled a Steam Dream’s excursion assisted by the B1 class “Mayflower” 61306 . Unfortunately, the Scottish weather decided not to play ball and you can...

Finally summer is here. It's no secret it's my favourite time of year so it was high time I headed out to enjoy the fine weather. It's still a little brown on the Moors so I chose compositions around this. First up is a lovely little fall on the River Coe - very little light about but the sky...

I grabbed these on a recent workshop last week. Once I got my client comfortable and ready for what was one of the best mornings I ever saw I couldn't resist a few shots and the client wanted a few demonstration shots on how I work. Whilst I don't shoot time lapses (I really should) I do like...

I spent a fabulous afternoon here a couple of months back as the light changed. _DSC4640 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr The shot I really wanted - (the lights on with some colour in the sky) _DSC4652 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr I took a few of the standard illumination shots _DSC4667 by...

Square _DSC1589 - Version 3 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr 4:3 _DSC1589 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr I quite like both

Hi All, This was from my recent Glencoe trip - it was a grey day overall but luckily some nice colour presented itself through the clouds as the sun was setting. Comments appreciated. Glencoe%20Sunset%20by%20Thomas%20Green,%20on%20Flickr']Glencoe Sunset by Thomas Green, on Flickr[/URL]...

Hi all, I have a couple of weeks off work (joys of being a teacher) and pretty much everyone I know is still working so I am going to get away and do probably 4 nights camping somewhere on a 100% photography focussed trip. Options at the minute are: - Southern side of Snowdonia and South...

Another throw back series as I work my way through some old images... Lochan Na Fola x2 _DSC2661 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr _DSC2673 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr Buachaille Etive Mor _DSC2686 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr Torren Lochan x 2 _DSC2701 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr _DSC2710...

A bit of a throw back to my first proper visit here. I've reprocessed (and recropped these more importantly) to hide some distant telegraph poles and a cottage that was in the frame. _DSC9476 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr _DSC9479 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr

Here's a handful of images taken this past fortnight, making the most of my time off work before going back on Monday. About 2500 miles travelled, a few photos taken, and generally a good few day trips away with good mates. 1. Kilchurn Castle by Martin Steele, on Flickr 2. Lochan na...

This is my favorite location in Scotland. The Old Man of Storr. Sunrise.

It's no secret I despise this time of year and find precious little to motivate me through the winter months. I decided to reprocess some shots from the Torren Lochan from July 2017. My tastes have changed a little since then so I thought I'd give the RAW files a fresh look. This was probably...

Had a night up near Glencoe and a wee drive down Glen Etive this morning (it was minus three degrees) - this was my view as we stopped for breakfast Deer by David Young, on Flickr

Just a quick selection from last monday - for those who know me off the forum I'm still working on the France/Spain pictures from last month but here's last Mondays efforts. Imagination nill but with the rainfall at least the waterfall has some movement in it. _DSC3877 (1) by Stephen Taylor...

I just came back from a nice little break in Scotland and came away with some images I'm really proud of. I've presented 3 of them here as 3 separate moods as I think they contrast together quite nicely. Comments, critique or feedback welcome :) 1. I had about 20 seconds of the rainbow plus...

Been putting off working on this shot for a while - it's not my best of the summer from there. The light never really came through and this glimmer the only light of the day - shame really as the sky was epic and had it come through it would have been one of the all time great mornings...

Stunning weather at the weekend. Took this when we had a wee detour on the way home from the Portsoy Boat Festival.

Hey guys, I'm looking for any suggestions for an industrial style location (vintage derelict warehouse etc) near the Glasgow area for a kickboxing shoot. I did contact a couple of locations typically used for TV/Movie production, but they are too expensive. It's for a non-commercial project so I...

Herdsman by Northaway Photography, on Flickr Just kidding, it's everyone's favourite mountain, judging by the tripod holes on the riverbank - Buachaille Etive Mor.

A bit of time on the Isle of Mull which while iconic for wildlife isn't somewhere folks normally think about when it comes to Landscape Photography. Has been a pretty cold week with wind chill sending the mercury plummeting. And for those interested some rambling in my latest vlog.

A while back I posted a series of B&W renditions of my trip(s) to Glencoe. Here are the colour ones Black Rock Cottage _DSC1609_Rendition 1 by Stephen Taylor, on Flickr Frozen Falls - I hadn't intended on taking this picture but when I saw the frozen falls I new I had too. It's not the...
