Landscape Compositions + Urban Exploring. In this video, I'm in the Isle of Harris and Lewis shooting Landscapes and Exploring.

My very good friend Gary Beaumont and I travelled to the Isle of Harris & Lewis in the Outer Hebrides exploring for locations for an up and coming Workshop in 2019. It was my first visit to the Island. I have to say right off the bat it's the BEST PHOTOGRAPHY ADVENTURE I have ever undertaken!
The Island is amazing on so many levels. In some respects, it's just like stepping back in time. That's an outstanding compliment by the way. For instance, Harris and Lewis are devoid of the typical fast food outlets that have dominated our lives and the world! There is no (legal) drinking throughout the night, no rowdy Night Clubs. The residents are unbelievably kind and approachable. Graffiti is conspicuous by its absence! How fantastic is that?!
Try and think of a place you have visited where there is NO GRAFITTI? I bet you can't!
To me, there is just one word that describes it... WOW!
ORIGINAL PLAN
My original plan was to venture around the Island with Gary B as my guide and simply mark down must-visit locations. It didn't quite turn out like that though. The Island has a must-look-at surprise around every corner. The gift that keeps on giving I kept saying. Everything from old ruined buildings, playgrounds to shipwrecks. Not to mention the wildlife. I could go on...
I was only there two and a half days and I know I already have enough video footage and pictures for 4 videos and that's compressing the stories too!
This is Part 1 - Our first morning on the Island.
THANK YOU
Gary
