The Fisherman | The Isle of Harris

So recently I traveled back to Scotland to visit my family. My sister and her partner live on the West Coast of Scotland on the Isle of Harris.
A beautiful Island will white sandy beaches and rough terrain. My sister's partner is called Kirean and he's a fisherman on the island.
I wanted to shoot a small film showing a glimpse into his life as a fisherman on the Island. With only a few days to shoot due to intense weather, this is what we managed to produce.

Huge respect for this man, his work ethic and way of life!! Most people are to lazy to get out of bed for the easiest of day jobs and theres Kieren with what looks like one hell of a physically and mentally demanding job and hes kicking through putting food on the table for his family, epic story! Epically put together my man, epic story and so visually entertaining to watch!

"Unwind, touch the brine Take some bread, break some wine I can see the water line Red below the Lewis sun Where the ocean rolls Aboard the ship of souls The healing wind blows So why crawl when we can run" Runrig (about the other half of the island but still close)

[@gordyduff_]

Love it, cannot beat Runrig!
