Lighting the stove reminded me of my wife not being familiar with gas. She left the burner on on put a tea towel over the burner. She couldn't see the flame as it was a beautiful day and a healthy burner always burns blue. Daylight is blue - you easily cannot see a gas flame. You need contrast. Gas can be tricky to light outside, so either shield the piezoelectric or hold the saucepan lid over the burner, light it and swiftly drop the lid when you feel it getting too hot 😁 . Nice trip/video.

Glad you enjoyed! I'll keep the lid trick in mind. 😁

Really enjoyed Conor's research and insight into these historic sites. It came over really well. I was waiting to find a video of him sharing his subject. I was in my mid 20s when the Balfarg henge, riding school sight were excavated. Fife, is full of Pictish names and in particular Glenrothes with the precinct names, which were the names of the farms. Thanks.

Thank you again for posting another wonderful video. Your cinematography is, as usual, superb, and Barney is a great addition to your touring family. You have again taken me to the lands of my ancestors, a voyage I could never otherwise undertake. And your smile is a delightful indicator of how much you enjoy what you are doing. Again my thanks and best wishes.

We had kids with us on the walk and didn't encounter any overly dangerous or too hard to manage bits. There were some rocky bits where we had to scramble and help the kids out. Perhaps what you mean could be further on as you go up towards the actual mountain tops? 🤔

It's a toss-up between the second and third bell that struck one as pleasing, with the second bell being the favourite of those two. Surprising of the amount of graffiti there in Germany. It just seems that that wouldn't be so prevalent in the public square like that. (JUST an observation, not critiquing) At least the sky graffiti wasn't visible there... Thanks for another aesthetically pleasing video collection of one's travels!

Nice flavour of Berlin in spring! Thanks for sharing the footage of the samurai museum, very impressive for a museum outside Japan!! Wonder why it's so extensive a collection.its handy to go back and view the footage as you don't always have as much time look and read everything at the time.

Very informative however Camelon /Camelot is the old Roman fort at Falkirk not far from Arthurs ovens. One place that is of tremendous importance that hasn't had any drone footage over it as yet you may like to do a programme on is which is a unique Druid serpent mound at Meigle Skelmorlie in Ayrshire. There is only two of these mounds that are known in Scotland the other is in Argyll, although St Vigeans near Arbroath maybe another which has not yet been identified yet. Again this would be interesting to get some drone footage. Really enjoyed this keep the programmes coming. 🤩👍

Particularly interesting to me because I am currently reading a book about Queen Morguase, King Arthur's half sister, who was married to King Lot of Orkney. Mordred, King Arthur's son was born here. I believe in the legend of King Arthur. Ties in with history and the natural history of Britain.

@@OnMistyMountains Ben Y Hone catches everyone out. In Gaelic there are only 18 letters, which means combinations of letters make different sounds, especially if there's an H involved and there is no Z, which is an anomaly from an English translation. Without wanting to offend anyone, Gaelic is one of the hardest languages for English people, to learn, there are sounds that dont correspond to the written language, unusual sounds, gutteral, nasal, silent letters, lentations, different sentence order, gender specific, variable accents and to top that, local names that have no relation to what is on a sign post. The Walking Highlands website has a pronunciation for each mountain, but even the Gaelic speaker on it got this one wrong

Superb vid, visited that wee bit of the Gask ridge recently (muir o Fauld) on a freezing cold day. It's spooky to look to the hills and wonder what went through the soldiers minds each night. Or what the tribes made of it all,:the road, the towers, forts. Ardoch is an amazing place though, so strange how it survived (you can walk along the ramparts) whereas other sites like Inchtuthil faded away over the centuries.
@OnMistyMountains 6 ай бұрын
To be fair, Inchtuthil has cows all over it. Sometimes the ownership and use of the land can make a difference. I get the impression though that Ardoch was just a massive architectural effort compared to some less preserved Roman camps in Scotland.
@tomboH82 6 ай бұрын
Yes, it's almost better when there's less to see as you have to let your imagination take over. Think you are right those ditches at Ardoch got dug so deeply for some reason! Maybe at Inchtuthil they reckoned they were safe (ish) so didn't spend the time digging and then 2000 years of cows has undone all that hard work. Very inspiring work though, need to get up those hills to see those hill forts!
@tomboH82 6 ай бұрын
Great view of the Tay from those hillforts! Think I read the Romans had to cross that exact spot using a bridge made out of boats, all adds to the magic/mystery of those hills!

Great locations with stunning scenery. Winter always looks great, but I really wish the spring would hurry up! I like using my Nikon DSLR my only wish it they had a better autofocus system for video. When taking images it's great but for video, the focus tends to hunt back and forth trying to find focus. I ended up setting it to single servo AF then just pressing focus to get focus, film the shot and then repeat for the next.
@OnMistyMountains 7 ай бұрын
Mine doesn't even autofocus in videos at all. That's fine with me, I like the manual approach. 😂 I just need a speedy autofocus when I shoot from a driving car (which I enjoy a lot, just wish my non-nikon lenses were faster in focusing). Thanks for stopping by! 😁

@@OnMistyMountains I totally agree!! And Scottish landscapes are superb. Our clouds here (north central US) were just shades of grey with the rare peek through of a bright object up there over landscapes that are beautiful when green but otherwise uninspiring unless there is a lake in view. That's why I appreciated your gorgeous clouds, especially the prismatics (!!!) all the more. Thanks again.
