On my camping trips I usually take a small drone along. Originally I used a DJI Mavic Mini and more recently I have upgraded to a DJI Mavic Air 2S.
The drones are a lot of fun to fly and literally give you a different perspective of the Scottish scenery below. I mainly record drone footage of lochs & castles but beaches and general landscapes will also crop up from time to time.
- Tour of Tormore Distillery
A wee tour of Tormore Distillery in Speyside, Scotland. I found out how Scotch whisky is made and enjoyed a fascinating day out. - Sandwood Bay Drone Footage
Drone footage & aerial photographs of Sandwood Bay, taken during a summer camping trip. - Kayaking in Glencoe
A first attempt at kayaking and droning at the same time. This video from Loch Leven is an absolute epic! - Smoo Cave Drone Footage
Whilst passing through Durness on the way home from a camping trip, I stopped off at the wonderfully named Smoo Cave. - Loch Leven Drone Footage
A beautiful, crisp morning during a camping trip in Glencoe made for a fun droning trip at Loch Leven. - Ballachulish Marina Drone Footage
A quick drone flight around Ballachulish Marina. A beautifully quiet and peaceful location in Glencoe. - Oldshoremore Beach Drone Footage
An impromptu overnight stop in the hot tent at Oldshoremore Beach. We got a bovine surprise the following morning. Cows on the beach! - Loch Morlich Drone Footage
Drone footage from a moody & autumnal Loch Morlich, near Aviemore. - Mither Tap, Bennachie Drone Footage
A quick ramble up my local hill with the drone. It was far windier than it looks! - Falls of Measach Drone Footage
Quick stop at the Falls of Measach on the way to Ullapool. - Driving The Applecross Pass
The mighty Applecross Pass, what a road! Not for the faint hearted but the scenery is more than reasonable compensation. - Eilean Donan Castle Drone Footage
The most famous and most photographed of all the Scottish Castles. The picturesque Eilean Donan Castle. - Dores Beach, Loch Ness Drone Footage
Dores Beach at Loch Ness is my favourite place in the world. Just look at it! - Glenfinnan Viaduct Drone Footage
Glenfinnan Viaduct is an engineering marvel. I managed to catch the Jacobite Express crossing the viaduct. - Bullers of Buchan Drone Footage
The Bullers of Buchan looks a little alien. Beautiful, weird and terrifying all at the same time. - New Slains Castle Drone Footage
New Slains Castle in Aberdeenshire. The inspiration behind Dracula’s Castle. - Lochindorb Castle Drone Footage
Lochindorb Castle is a ruin situated on a man-made island in the middle of Lochindorb. One day I will kayak out for a closer look.
