The joy of landscape

Almost every photographer I know, whatever genre they work in, will say that they enjoy doing landscape photography. I’m a commercial photographer so I spend a lot of time doing everything from head shots (or business portraits, as I prefer to call them), to products, services, interiors and much in between. Most of this is done indoors with artificial lighting.

It’s therefore a joy to get out in the fresh air from time to time to indulge in some landscape photography, working with the natural environment and available light. It makes you think differently and engage in a fresh way with subject, light and equipment.

I’m also fortunate to live in Scotland where you are never too far from wild countryside and blessed with so many visual delights.

Here are a couple of shots, from a location not too far from my home in Fife. This is the Yad waterfall in Maspie Den on the Falkland Estate. I’m grateful to my business associates at Fife Networking, and especially Craig Allan, for encouraging me to post the photos after mentioning Maspie Den in a Zoom meeting this morning. Thanks folks!
