    Looooved this video and your photos are stunning. Scotland is on my bucket list as well. I was thinking October, less tourist (ironically as that sounds) less midges and cheaper. I was looking at a group photo tour (didn’t want to do another solo vacation). Any thoughts on the time of month, recommendations on a tour guide or going at alone? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Cheers

    Beautiful images Damien. You gave great explanations of what you were thinking when composing your shots. I really want to go to Scotland this year. I was hoping to join a tour or small group would you have any suggestions on contacts? Is October a good time to visit? I'm coming from Canada.

    Thank you very much for your kind comments Stewart. This was my first trip to Scotland Stewart, I live in Ireland and I just did my own research and travelled. There's an excellent Photography guide on Amazon which not only gives locations but the coordinates for car parking and clear instructions on how to find the location You'll find it at www.amazon.co.uk/Photographers-Guide-Scotland-Skye-Trossachs/dp/0992683440?pd_rd_w=HMNU8&content-id=amzn1.sym.f7467199-2e57-4b30-9bb1-e90579eb72b9&pf_rd_p=f7467199-2e57-4b30-9bb1-e90579eb72b9&pf_rd_r=XDGVR0TSRNGDREFVK57X&pd_rd_wg=DL0U4&pd_rd_r=4fc18315-2276-4c3f-84f7-fdf2ee942187&pd_rd_i=0992683440&psc=1&ref_=pd_basp_d_rpt_ba_s_3_t October sounds really good, perhaps the last two weeks to be guaranteed some colour. There is a chap on KZread from the UK...Paul Compton Photography who takes small groups on workshops Stewart he may be able to assist you.

    Some lovely shots there from a stunning part of Scotland. That wee white cottage under the Buachaill is called Lagangarbh and is one of the three classic honeypot cottage shots in Glencoe; Blackrock (near Ski Centre) and another one by the head of Loch Aitrochan, near the turnoff for Clachaig. I liked your B&W of the Caol shipwreck. BTW , I agree with your analysis of the river and the shipwreck. Looking forward to your next videos in this series.

The Buachaille Etive Mor square crop was great too but I’m going for the evening shot of it because I really liked the flow in that one. Good luck for the rest of the trip, you’re probably home now but I bet it was great.
