Excited to say I’ve been shortlisted again in the @GBPhotoAwards. There’s a public vote so if you feel inclined do give it a click. I’m going for the Scottish sympathy vote if nothing else! 😂

Since the start of the year I’ve been changing the way I share my work. Please join me in 🦋 and in Substack. It’s much, much better.

A wee series I did at Húsar Church on Kalsoy, while waiting for the ferry home. Do look closely at the door handle, it’s quite beautiful. #appicoftheweek #elementsphotomag #outdoorphotographymagazine

High and Dry. A wander down to Port Seton and Cockenzie harbours wasn’t so fruitful from the photography perspective. But I did get this mono shot and liked the minimal look. #appicoftheweek #elementsphotomag #outdoorphotographymagazine

@Elisa_G_Coines Thank you

Back at my favourite boat earlier this week. It’s the sharp lines of the hull and the lovely aqua colours that pulled me back for another look. #appicoftheweek #elementsphotomag #outdoorphotographymagazine

@MichaelBec12647 Thanks

Barns Ness shipwreck. Well it gets called a shipwreck but apparently it was an old barge that was used for target practice by the navy in WW2. They seemed to have done a decent job as not much remains. #fsprintmonday #appicoftheweek #elementsphotomag #outdoorphotographymagazine

@PeteWishart Pete the only posts I ever see you write these days are something to do with Alba. I don’t care. They are totally irrelevant to me and the vast majority of Scots. Id rather hear how you are improving my life and my children’s futures. If you don’t you’re going to be voted out. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Another one from up at Rannoch the other week, when winter was actually winter. #appicoftheweek #elementsphotomag #outdoorphotographymagazine

@SillyPigsPlay Well done Steve, you could easily do a book yourself now.

Netting, Funningur, Faroe Islands.

Once the sun was fully up at Rannoch and the light was too harsh for wider landscapes, I concentrated on the abstracts and enjoyed making this little collection. #photography #abstract #photographers #nikon #scotland #appicoftheweek #elementsphotomag #outdoorphotographymagazine

More from the frozen north. It’s now 10 degrees C here in Edinburgh, 16 degrees change in a few days just doesn’t feel right.

@Tamlovephoto @OutdoorPhotoMag @UKNikon @kasefiltersuk Yeah the ice was incredible with all the patterns and formations.

@merseamillsy @OutdoorPhotoMag @UKNikon @kasefiltersuk Thanks. We explore such a tiny proportion of it too. It’s a vast area.

@JamesGrantPhoto @OutdoorPhotoMag @UKNikon @kasefiltersuk Thanks James. Luckily there was one parking space left at the side of the road!

All iced up. A bit like our windscreen on the M9 the other day. Or it could be a drone shot of the ocean? Does it even matter? And I couldn’t decide between square or landscape. But I think that matters even less. #appicoftheweek #elementsphotomag #outdoorphotographymagazine

@GSwinbourne Love that third one 👌
