Scotland photo locations for landscape photography
Having just returned from a fantastic landscape photography trip to Scotland I thought I’d just produce a short article highlighting some of my favourite photo locations in Scotland
You’ll find my Scotland photo location article on my website.
My Scotland photography gallery is now updated with photos from my latest trip
The Scottish landscape is such an awesome place for a photography trip and having just spent a week around Glencoe and Assynt in the North West Highlands I was totally blown away byt the experience. Whilst the weather in Scotland is a little infamous for being wild and unpredictable I had some major luck at times so managed to see much of the area in some beautiful light and capture some nice images.
I've now edited most of the photos I took on the Scotland trip so have a browse of my photography gallery to get an idea of just what amazing scenery Scotland has to offer.
