AMAZING GLENCOE - How the WEATHER influences Landscape Photography

[@ross-nicolson]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video! Really really enjoyed it! Love the night shot down at the Lochan, and the final Buachaille Etive Mor shot is spectacular! Actually, when I was young the Buachaille Etive Mor was the view out of my living room window (we lived at "the Kingy" (RIP)), our daily school run was the road down the Glen to Glencoe village. But I must admit I find it very difficult to bring myself to photograph this area, it's like I'm so used to it that it's just normal everyday scenery and I've probably taken it for granted for way too long now. So I'm trying to look at it all with fresh eyes, see this area as others see it and try to find a new appreciation for the scenery. And being able to watch your experience of photographing Glencoe is so so helpful in that respect, so thank you very very very much for that!! :) Now I'm very tempted to go and FINALLY!!! take my first ever photo of the Buachaille over the next few days. PS: good attempt at pronouncing "Buachaille Etive Mor". I've heard some crazy pronunciations before, so good job there! Just change the "Bua" to "Boo", and the "chaille" to "chal" - so "boo-chal", more-or-less (keeping the "ch" just the way you said it). Spelling in Gaelic makes no sense, I know...lol. :D

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Wow! That's like the best comment ever Ross! :) I'm so happy I can influence a local so much! I can totally relate to the way of the beautiful nature around you being normal and uninspiring. I feel the same about most of Denmark... Wish I could change that. I used those "walkhighlands.co.uk" to find the right pronunciation, but very happy I now know how to really do it :)

[@ross-nicolson]

Thank you, and no problem with the pronunciation help :D I was trying to think of a few other locations around here to suggest for you and others to check out. Perhaps one place that might (or might not) be worth scouting is called "Gleann Leac na Muidhe" (pronounced "Glen Lech na Moo-ee"). About 2 miles before Glencoe village (travelling from the direction of the Buachaille) there's a left hand turn up a track that takes you up there (possibly private, so might have to walk up). Then about a mile up the track there are 3 houses, but the track does carry on further than that. It's quite an isolated wee location, and the view looks back down the Glen toward Clachaig and the Aonach Eagach ridge. We used to live up there 20 years ago, and I have memories of walking back from the pub in Glencoe village or Ballachulish at 3am and being amazed at just how bright and clear the stars were once half way up the track and away from the lights of civilisation (other memories include falling/staggering into ditches and being scared silly trying to navigate past Highland cows in absolute darkness, haha!). Anyway, if you look on Google Maps for "Glencoe Mountain Cottages" you'll find the Glen location, and I think the closest parking would be on the main road just on the bend before the turn off or at "An Torr". Like I say, it might or might not be worth a look for any intrepid explorers out there, could be one of those places that looks great but doesn't lend itself so well to getting a nice photo. Think I'll add it to my list of places to check out though :)

[@mb7275]

Dear Mats, we were also in Scotland two weeks ago and also in Glencoe. I could so relate to your incredible enthusiasm for this landscape. My family and I felt the same way. It was just overwhelming and I don't know how many times I even said "Is this beautiful!" during the two weeks in Scotland. I had to smile so much every time you were so excited and fascinated. Next time we will definitely make the march up the mountain, the view from there is awesome. We also know the effect that a grandiose landscape does not necessarily mean a grandiose photo subject. We always call this "panorama problem". Thanks for the great video and the awesome photos you share with us. Many greetings from Germany.

[@markfagan5028]

I absolutely love seeing peoples reactions to Glencoe and those photos you got were amazing. Where you took those photos of The Buachaille is one of my favourite camping spots, its incredible with a morning cloud inversion.

[@veronicamorrison6056]

Your amazing video portrays exactly the magic of the Scotland I so love. A Scot living in Switzerland for 50 years, I have always struggled to describe the difference in the the beauty of Swiss landscapes as opposed to Scottish ones. Your video gives the best example. Switzerland is like a stunningly beautiful fashion model, always photogenic and almost exasperatingly perfect. Scotland, especially Glencoe is untamed, uncompromising, moody and utterly unique. Her beauty can only be felt from under the skin and can only be appreciated from having weathered her storms. The bleak and ever changing skies, suddenly breaking into brilliant, ephemeral sunshine reward the brave traveller. Therein lies the beauty of the Scottish Highlands. You have captured it all so completely . Thank you. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@stevechandler6171]

I enjoyed your video on Glencoe very much. I recently visited Scotland for 2 weeks in August 2017. One week was dedicated to playing the best golf courses in the country and the other week was to travel the countryside with my daughter and see as much of the splendor as possible in that short span. My only disappointment with my trip was the day we went through Glencoe was the worst weather of the entire 2 weeks. Even so, the wonder of the area was apparent. Your video and enthusiasm, along with others that have attempt to translate the beauty of this special place through a camera, has convinced me that I will need multiple trips back to Scotland. My next trip will be more dedicated to photography thanks to the continued stimulus in videos such as this one. The people of Scotland are the best in the world. We could not rate anyone we met below a 9 on a scale to 10. There are so many places here in America to see, but Scotland is the Gem of the UK for being the complete package. I look forward to seeing you break the 1 million subscriber mark someday soon!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha thank you Steve! 1mio is far, far into the future for sure! Unless I start getting all my videos featured on the big blogs, but they're just too lazy to sum up all the information in my videos - I guess it's not sexy enough ;) I hope you'll make it back to Scotland and witness Glen Coe in all its splendor!

[@adam_west_photo]

If anyone is feeling jaded with their photography or the winter weather, they need to be prescribed this 20 minute fix of inspiration. I suspect that is a day you will remember for the rest of your life Mads. All of the images you showed are worthy of epic, stunning and other worn out superlatives. Brilliantly thought through shots and generous advice, as always. These locations will be superb with a covering of snow, if you are comfortable navigating... Haste Ye Back!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha thanks a lot Adam! How I would love to go back to a snow covered Glen Coe! :)

[@carljarvinen1189]

Mads, just love your enthusiasm. It draws me to your videos....

[@tadeusz11000]

I hope you have a book deal planned, Mads, as these episodes complete with you guide to shooting would be an ideal landscape photographer’s reference Say yes, please!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

No book deal :( I don't know how to do...

[@Elmarto7777]

This is W O N D E R F U L !!!!! One of the best landscape photography videos I've seen on KZbin. Thank you...

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much! Very happy to hear that! Means a lot :)

[@almamacleod2778]

Omg wow miss Scotland not been since 2017 love you Scotland missing you bad xxx

[@rom-media6800]

Wow! That last photo is simply amazing Mads! So much drama and the light is beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much! Also my favorite shot :)

[@gas1958ify]

I am not a photography enthusiast ,but truly admire everything of beauty.and may i say Peter ,you captured some truly stunning natural photo's of the beauty Scotland has to offer.loved all the photo's,but yes the milky way reflection scene,and those mountain shots,where truly breathtaking.especially the one you had your girlfriend,adding the scale to the shot.and being a Scot myself,makes you realize,what is truly sitting on our own doorstep,that we take for granted,and never bother to visit or see.thank you and your gf,for providing us KZbin viewer's,with such stunning and beautiful video's.

[@pthomas36]

Mads, this video has evoked more emotion from me than I think any other that you've produced. That is in part because you yourself were so moved by the beauty of the scene. I had this tearful grin for most of the video and I understand your thrill at such high level views. It evokes tears of joy! I am a paraglider pilot and for a lot of the video I was looking at the cloud movements and flying opportunities but I could never get such incredible photo results from the air. This one was transcendant for me. Thank you SO MUCH!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Oh Tom thank you so much! Very happy you enjoyed the video that much! Must be amazing to paraglide! I haven't tried that yet...

[@balujois]

The last image is awesome. Just awesome

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Jois! :)

[@ALinNZ2]

My favourite day on our tour of Scotland was the day in Glencoe. What outstanding landscape that you have captured so terrifically.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Alistair! YEs Glen Coe is magical!

[@MegaDwilkinson]

absolutely fantastic Mads - the essence of landscape photography and we all love it

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much David! :)

[@davekemp750]

It's rare that I can't find the words to describe the quality of something like this. The photo's, the filming, the passion you have!! WOW is all I can think of and even that does not do it justice. You made a Yorkshire man speechless and that really takes some doing.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha that's funny Dave! I'm very happy you enjoyed it! :D

[@darrenbooker9438]

It's always about the light...and you had some fantastic light Mads. I have to agree with you the image of Sophie in the light ray is very nice, but the last image where the sun is illuminating the back side of the mountain and lighting the valleys on either side is truly beautiful, well done. It's great to see someone thats get really excited about the light.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Hehe thank you Darren! Yeah got a bit excited there :)

[@rudyengels]

Sometimes one just have to look and be very, very quiet. Amazing again!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, much appreciated Rudy!! :)

[@valk-photography]

WOW !!! I share your enthusiasm of the epic place "mountain Beinn a'Chrulaiste" and the magic you have captured. Great video and very inspirational Mads !!!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you Mario! Have you been there? :)

[@valk-photography]

No Mads but your video triggered my enthusiasm so extreme that i checked my schedule for going to visit this location. :)

[@ANDYD655]

Absolutely fantastic images! That light was sublime!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank and yes! :)

[@johnnyneill1231]

The definition of EPIC.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you Jonathan - that's what I aimed for ;)

[@JamieOverland]

Wow, wow & triple wow! Absolutely stunningly glorious images Mads!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Jamie!

[@richardanstisphotography]

A refreshing change to see someone sticking to the subject. Very good. Thanks.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Richard :) Happy it all made sense!

[@ChrisSmith-vv8hg]

Loved it. Well done Mads. I loved the way you got really giddy and excited. Just the way I feel when I'm out and about with my camera and the environment plays ball. Once again . . . can't wait for the Skye video. Keep up the good work - Chris

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Chris! Very happy I'm not the only one fooling around like this :)

[@ANDYD655]

Fantastic! Im going on the 5hr trip Thursday night to get here Good Friday sunrise and thought I’d watch it again to get the juices pumping! Can’t wait now thank you!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha fantastic! I hope you get your sunrise!

[@alanscott.online]

Amazing astro shot reflected in the loch.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much Alan :)

[@thomaswentworth6433]

That photo taken near Glencoe , with the Milky Way reflected in the lake is insanely stunning. So much so that it's now my home screen. Sir, that's the most remarkable photo (that's not been over processed) I've seen yet. Top draw.

[@StefanOffermann]

I am currently watching older videos from this channel and boy, this is really worth it. As a fan of Scotland I am now even more excited to travel there again.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you, Stefan! 🙏 I occasionally actually watch my old videos too. Good memories ☺️

[@heilandgunner]

Hi Mads, I've been watching your videos for a while now and you've made me want to visit so many places. Now you're posting inspirational videos from my doorstep! I've visited Kilchurn Castle, Rannoch Moor and Glencoe on numerous occasions, but I've never heard anybody convey so much enthusiasm for them as you. I'm planning my next visit to Rannoch Moor next week to take some images of some lesser known vantage points and your video has reinforced my love of the whole area. Keep up the great work.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

I'm so happy to hear that! Rannoch Moor was also a location I would have tried out if I had just a bit more time ;) Good luck!

[@heilandgunner]

In reality you were already in Rannoch Moor, but people seem to confuse it with Glencoe which is further on the A82.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Ah ok, I did see the big sign with Glencoe down the road and knew the buachaille is located in Glen Etive. I associated Rannoch Moor with the swampish area further out :)

[@heilandgunner]

That's understandable. That whole flat expanse you were at is Rannoch Moor. As you go north on the A82 past Buachaille Etive Mor you get to the Three Sisters and to me that's Glencoe. It's irrelevant really as the entire area is just magical. I moved here 20 years ago and I'm still discovering new aspects to take. I've taken the iconic shot of the falls in front of 'The Buachaille', but your aspect was new to me! Next time I'm there I will be trying to get to where you were. Most people (myself include) take that shot from the top of the bank, not right down low where you were. That's why we follow your channel. Inspiration! Thanks again:-)

[@garybeaumont1373]

My favourite of your vlogs so far. Great location, great pics thanks for sharing. I pleased you got rewarded with good light, although I’ve yet to see you fail to take a good picture in any conditions. What’s makes the vlog so enjoyable is your excitement and enthusiasm. Really looking forward to your visit to The Isle of Skye.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you Gary! Yeah I try to get the most out of the situations and want to be able to get away with a great picture no matter the weather :)

[@chriskirby70]

Mate another great video. The last image, the one of Sophie and the milky way shot are amazing. Scotland is such a special place. Thanks for aharing.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot Christopher! I love those photos too! :)

[@alkimble6259]

Mads, your photography and instruction are without equal!! I have not seen this quality of work anywherelse in the industry!!! Thank you for sharing!!! KIM.

[@mannipearce3357]

Wow. The 1sr picture at the end is awesome. The light was fantastic and you captured It so well. Keep up the good work Mads

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you Manuel! Yes it looked so beautiful!

[@tudorwest1]

absolutely stunning Mads loved every second of your video cannot wait for ISLE OF SKYE

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much! :) Very happy you enjoyed it!

[@williamconnell6541]

OMG...Simply beautiful, thanks to you and Sophie for sharing, awesome images and matching music to go with the videos will be watching this episode many times :)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You're very welcome William! Very happy you liked it :)

[@paulwayman5137]

Oh Mads, your enthusiasm is so infectious :) Another great video buddy. The images are STUNNING. The light, the composition, the god beams, Sophie in shot giving scale to the composition. I am SO GLAD that Tom Heaton recommended your channel a few months ago. Otherwise I'd have missed out on your love of landscape and imagery. Keep up the good work mister :)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

I'm very happy that he gave a suggested video of mine! And I'm really happy you enjoy the videos and my enthusiasm :)

[@joseluisdg1981]

I've seen this video several times and I cant explain how it manages to give me the chills every time. It's epic. And I need to go to Glencoe.

[@joedavies1524]

Wow! Another terrific edition from your Britain series, cant wait to see the Skye vid.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you Joe! Skye very soon! ;)

[@aritz_atela]

Over the top. Pure essence of what landscape photography is. Just wow.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Aritz! :)

[@bbrown6057]

Epic location and superb photos!! Killer job!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot! :)

[@wylie_photo]

Great video again, Mads. Spectacular images of a spectacular location. Scotland is just an incredible place to visit, culturally and visually. I like your take on landscape photography, Thomas Heaton should have mentioned you in his recent video about other KZbinrs, you deserve a much higher subscription number as your content is just stunning. Thomas are you listening? Perhaps you could use your own amazing channel to give Mads the recognition he deserves! Just saying...!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha thank you Mark! I've actually got a two of my recent videos on his suggested video of the week, which I'm very grateful for - it gave a nice boost and brought in some new subscribers :)

[@Alastair6]

Mads! What an awesome video! I am a native Scot, Dundee 1949. Came to the US in '55. I went back in 2002 and Glen Coe was one of my favorite places. Your videos are very well done! I enjoy them. Thank you!

[@peterbiggin7193]

That was just fantastic. The milky way shot was amazing and those last shots from up on the mountain ( I'm not going to try and spell the name lol ) were some of the best I have ever seen of Glencoe. Thank you very much for this

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Peter! I'm really happy you liked them :)

[@WyeExplorer]

I smiled smiled and smiled with you Mads. That was inspirational on so many levels. Well done - what a time. Mark

[@Topsyrm]

Another brilliant video Mads. The Scottish Highlands are indeed as awesome (a much overused word these days but appropriate here) as you showed. Stunning images from the heights of the mountain I'm sure you have more in your hard drive. I am so looking forward to your Skye Episode, that truly is a magical location (no offense to Glencoe).

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot! Skye is great, but Glen Coe was without a shadow of a doubt the best photographic experience I had in Great Britain! But it was all due to the weather and light. I could just as well have had this kinda weather on Skye :)

[@mikeredstar3900]

Wow, what a remarkable video. I have just watched this in Feb 2019, in a hotel room in Glencoe with my girlfriend. Very inspirational, thanks for making and sharing this Mads. You deserve more than 25k subscribers. Thanks!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Mike! :)

[@jongrall]

Incredible, glorious, stunning, beautiful! Don't forget "magical"! ;) The English language definitely falls short at expressing how these places can make us feel. So glad to see you were rewarded with some amazing light after staying out all night to shoot the Milky Way and then making the hike up that mountain! That shot with Sophie lit by the sunbeams in the mid ground is 👌❤️🎉. My favorite photo of yours along with the one you took in the Faroe Islands with her standing in the foreground in front of the fjords. I definitely favor the shots where a human element is introduced - they help me imagine how it would feel to be there, and remind us how small we are. I've said it before: you're very lucky to have a model willing to hike up those mountains with you! My wife is afraid of heights but might be able to be convinced to try this kind of shot when we go to Scotland. I did get her to go to a precarious rocky outcrop over a glacier in Iceland... so there's a chance! ;) Keep up the great work, glad to hear the subscribers are starting to pick up!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot John! Yes I'm very lucky indeed! It doesn't feel like too much of a height when you're up there... more like a big hill ;)

[@davidball8438]

Breathtaking!! Loved the last image ;-)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much David! :)

[@medwynroberts]

Another great vlog, thanks for taking the time. 👍🏻

You're welcome Medwyn! :)

[@Gigldog]

Just stunning! Awesome images and a great video! I dont understand, why you dont have more subscribers, you definitely deserve more attention!!! Keep up the good work.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much! I guess it's because I don't make many generic TOP 5 videos that capture peoples attention ;)

[@Alan-DPhotos]

Absolutely, gobsmackingly stunning. As always you astound me with your eye and timing for a composition. Well done sir :-)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha thanks Alan! Not sure that's a real word, but I love it! :)

[@isabelladavis1363]

one thing is certain...your patience is such a huge reward in capturing images of this magnitude...the weather can be incredibly challenging so knowing when to push that shutter button at the perfect moment can be daunting...the Milky Way reflected in the waters below.....I N C R E D I B L E !!!!! Im obviously BINGE watching you channel while I'm enjoying a bit of down time...thank you again...Im certain I will revisit many as time goes on..

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Isabella! Very happy you enjoy the channel and thanks for the comments :)

[@GardeningWithMaples]

Great video! I've been watching your channel for the last 9 months and this by far is your best video! I've been planning a trip to England and Scotland and your last few videos have been awesome; I've added a few new locations to explore to my trip. Keep up the great work.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much Brandon and thank you for the continued support! :)

[@FredrikLarssonPhoto]

Jag har precis börjat om att titta på dina gamla videos från de roadtrips som du gjorde genom de olika platserna. Så mycket nostalgi och så underbart mysiga videos. Saknar lite dessa och att det kom en ny video med nya platser och turer allteftersom :) Kan fortfarande minnas att det var dessa videos som fick upp ögonen för dig och ditt berättande.

[@lilirehak5569]

The Milky Way reflection was stunning as well as your final shot of Buachailee Etive. All of Glen Etive is fabulous too if you get the chance to go.

[@MrFrankie1311]

Thank you Richard! I bet Ansel would yes! But I completely understand why he stuck to Yosemite and the neighbouring Nat. Parks ;)

epic video and photography , makes want to jump in car drive there ,

I'd say "do it" ;)

[@alexandrehemery8712]

Hi Mads, I'm going to Scotland in one week, watched every video you've made about it and I can say that I'm super super excited. Thanks a lot for sharing to us your knowledge and your passion!

[@georgegraham4851]

Unbelievable vlog Mads, it felt like I was standing next to you on Beinn a'Chrulaiste. In a location of such incredible beauty getting an image that does it justice can be difficult, but you absolutely nailed it. Picking a favourite image is impossible when they are all so amazing. I live about two hours away from Glencoe and after watching this I must return. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You are very welcome George! And I'm very happy the video had that effect om you :)

[@janj5390]

Thank you for your wonderful videos... I feel like I am right there with you the way you describe the scene, what to look for and how to get there.... your enthusiasm is second to none. Not sure how many videos you have made, but I am slowly working my way through them!

[@kamurray82]

Your image of the starry sky above Glen Lochan just blew my mind. That is an amazing piece of photography, I'm not surprised at all that it is one of your favourites. Glad I've subscribed now!!

[@Matt__just_a_guy]

What an incredible video Mads. Your passion and enormous talent are truly inspiring.

[@johnearl2303]

I did a tour of Scotland last year, I know how you feel I felt exactly the same, the views were stunning. I liked your photo of the waterfalls, unfortunately I’m not a fan of long exposures of water.

[@erichstocker4173]

Often hard to get the Milky Way that far North. As far as your other photos and video--WOW!!!!!

[@dannykenealy6080]

absolutely the best vlogger on YT. every time you show emotion and passion in your videos you can see how much it means to you. im going to Glencoe on boxing day for some photography :) might even do a little vlog my self. that view point is the same one im after but with snow!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you SO much Danny! That means a lot - there as some really great Landscape Vloggers out there :) I'll have to return to here when it's winter too! :)

[@dannykenealy6080]

when you do let me know i'll come meet you :)

[@julianbolt]

Uplifting and - just lovely. Thank you.

[@westenbergerstephan5955]

Hi Mads, I have never watched a Vblog where the word "unbelievable", "so beautiful" and "amazing" have repeatably been said. It truely shows your passion and I feel happy for you that you had simply the best conditions a landscape photographer can have in this moment, at this stunning (another word....) place! Thank you so much for sharing these moments with all of us!!! For me, watching your Vblog is like I am stading next to you and the way how you combinate frames and drone videos including the music you chose, makes you vblogs simply perfect! I must admit, and for all who do read my comment - I am not promoting Mads because he is a close friend or we do have a comercially connection - that you are currently the KING OF LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY at youtue. DON'T STOP what you are doing and I am really look forward watching your next Vblog about the Isle of Skye!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha thank you Stephan! That says a lot considered there as so many other really good vloggers out there :) But I really appreciate every word! Thanks a lot :)

Thank you Mads Peter, for publishing your video's of Scotland. I came across them researching the NC500, for a trip in October. The Glen Coe, was the one which stood out for me with the light, photo at 18.48 to me is just superb. I can see why you liked the sun rays though the valleys but that photo.... Your video footage of the landscape is just as important, the drone is able to pick out the landscape detail which we miss with our eyes, (which you see later) when standing in one spot. as you rightly said no drone by railway lines (Glenfinnan). Milky Way on the Loch. Almost won it but a close second.

One of the best landscape photography vlogs I've seen. Certainly as a series, but this one in particular tugged at the heart strings the most. I am originally from the Highlands of Scotland (live in Wales now), but my only regret is I didn't take up photography seriously before moving to Wales, because it's difficult for me to get back up there now. All fantastic images, Mads, but the last one with the mountain backlit was off the charts. Amazing! Your passion tells the story so well in your vlogs, and this is helped by amazing videography. It could easily be a commissioned TV series. Thanks Mads. I'm a relatively recent subscriber after watching your joint workshop with Nick Page in the Faroe Islands, so I'm playing catch up with your videos (yes, I'm addicted to them).

Another magic segment. The last sequence was jaw dropping. Well done to you both.

“Art by god” is a quote I read a few weeks ago and, having watched and thoroughly enjoyed your latest journal, I felt that this quote could have been written about Glen Coe! Fantastic work again Mads. I have no doubt that your journals will still be viewed years from now, they are that good.👌 You took some quite delightful images, my favourite was the last you took of Buachaille Etive Mor was my favourite but it was a close run thing! I love Glen Coe and could spend weeks there so many thanks for posting this video. Take care mate and stay safe.🍀👌

Thank you so much Andy! I hope they will and I really aim for them to be worth watching and rewatching :)
