A Mindful Photographer's Approach to Iconic Locations

Join me for my final morning in Perthshire, Scotland, as I wake in the cosy writer’s retreat and prepare for an upcoming photography workshop. After packing up, I head to the iconic Hermitage at Dunkeld — one of Scotland’s most beautiful woodland locations — for a morning of outdoor and landscape photography. Rather than focusing on the well-known viewpoints, I take a slower approach, looking closely at the details that make this forest so special. From fallen leaves and moss-covered rocks to autumn fungi and towering trees. This video blends the feel of a “day in the life” vlog with a mindful photography journey, exploring how slowing down and noticing the small things can bring new inspiration to your creative practice. If you love: - Landscape and nature photography - Scottish woodlands and hidden locations - Photography vlogs and behind-the-scenes experiences - Mindfulness and creativity through the lens …then this video is for you. ✨ May it bring inspiration for your own photographic journey and remind you of the beauty in the details.
