Revisiting a beautiful spot in the Torrin area, I try a different composition of a scene that I have shot before. Overnight snow highlighted the mountains, and salt on the road brightened it up as a good lead-in.

In this post I revisit a favourite location in Glen Brittle to get some drama that I missed in a shot from two years before. I’ll also describe how small changes in position or settings can make big differences to the end result.

A short post on the importance of having an open mind to let creativity flow. This was the agenda for an afternoon of gentle monochrome photography on the Sleat peninsula in the Isle of Skye.

What was going to be a quick 30 minute session in the Isle of Skye turned into a rather long uphill hike to a beautiful series of cascading waterfalls. The photography was great, but even better was the feeling of being alive and invigorated afterwards. What a brilliant day.

It is extremely nerve wracking for me when my book gets into the hands of real people who have paid proper money for it. Turns out I needn’t have worried! Here are some quotes from happy Glas readers from New Zealand to Denmark to the UK and beyond.

Recounting “borrowing” a rather nice helicopter for a shoot involving remote radio-triggered flashes. Would everything work? This was one of the most fun and exciting shoots I’ve been involved in.

The latest update on my quest for creating compelling impressionistic photography. In this post I bring some new images from London, and some new lessons learned about the compositing technique I am using on my Ricoh GR3x HDF.

Finally, after seventeen years of work, I have started deliveries of Glas to Kickstarter backers here in Skye. There is still much to do, but it is brilliant to have the fruits of my efforts in the hands of my fantastic, intelligent and beautiful customers.
