Summit Camping for Landscape Photography on Beinn Lair 

Unfortunately the wind and haze really kicked in later in the trip, but the first two days were fantastic, so you win some you lose some!

Thanks Brendon, realism has been a big part of my ethos from the start. If you are interested in the subject generally then you can listen to a podcast I did with Erin Babnik on ‘F-stop collaborate and listen’. And yes, I’m a big fan of the Scarp 1, not least because I actually fit inside (I’m 6’4 so too tall for most 1-mans). The tent on the left is the old style though and you can see in the morning video just how much the arch pole is struggling! I may well replace it with something stronger!

@@alexnail I'm 5'7, so for me it's palatial, but I can see why you would appreciate it's length even more :-) I did notice in the video how the new model seemed to be dealing with the wind better. I guess it makes sense considering the couple of upgrades made to the fly and guy system. In any case I'll certainly check out that podcast, thanks. Looking forward to your future videos.

Yes, fair to say that going back a month later worked out well! I think that visit was the luckier of the two! I’ll do my best to get the Iceland video out next week but it’s squeezing the edit into evenings and weekends at the moment!

Thanks Andrew! Just need to find a moment to edit them!

Ha yes, and I can only wish for peaks with regular snow, extensive woodlands in the mountains and true wilderness!

@@alexnail Point taken!

Thanks Carl! And yeah it’s always interesting to see the same scene in drastically different light!

Thanks Paul, and cheers for continuing to comment, it gives me the all important motivation!

Thanks Stig

Yeah, I get to see some pretty special things that’s for sure!

You can watch it first 😉

@@alexnail But its better for the Algorithm if you get lots of interaction as soon as you upload a video. 😎

@@NicolasAlexanderOtto 🤐

Cheers Alfonso! I’m quite looking forward to editing the video, although it’s going to be a bit of a push, I have a busy month!

No; I actually have 2 now, both second hand

It’s really unpleasant to listen to, even if you could manage it, I couldn’t!

Thanks Alan! No Joe in Iceland, but I’m actually meeting him tomorrow, he chairs the RPS Landscape Panel which I’m a member of. Tomorrow is our first assessment day in person.
