Photographing One of Scotland's Hidden Waterfalls

A Very Wet and Challenging Photography Adventure

There’s not much Scotland doesn’t offer the adventurous landscape photographer. It has mountains, lochs, coastline, woodlands, and waterfalls. Some of those waterfalls have a lot of grandeur and are well known. There are also a few hidden gems. Not that hard to get to, but you need to know where they are.

There is one such waterfall near the town of Oban in West Scotland where I grew up. It’s been on my list of places to photograph for many years but it’s only on my most recent visit to Scotland that I’ve finally taken the chance to photograph it.

When I arrived at the waterfall though, it was in full flow, and it was raining. I shouldn’t have been surprised though. It is Scotland! With so much water in the air, it turned out to be one of the most challenging photographs I’ve ever captured. But I must admit, it was still a lot of fun!

Watch me get wet and take some photographs of this hidden gem of a waterfall in my latest 5 Minute Photo Adventure.
