Thomas, your greatest feat is how well you connect with all of us. Most of us have never met you, but it feels like we know you so well. Thanks on behalf of the photography community :)
Seriously and I mean seriously you deserve a show on Travel Landscape Photography. You will INSPIRE thousands out there needing a spark to Go Out and shoot. Excellent video and thanks a ton for your efforts!!
We often take the natural beauty that surrounds us for granted. Thank you for allowing your viewers to pause with you as you took in the stunning scenery around you. What an incredible space! I've always wanted to visit Skye & Outer Hebrides, but for now I'll have to be content to live vicariously through your lens.
I can't tell you how motivated I feel watching your videos. Every week you produce fantastic content however I must applaud you even further this week as I feel the photo in the video is one of the best you've taken. Keep up the good work!!
I just realized that I'm watching your videos with the same facial expression that I usually get when I watch fabulous channels like BBC Earth or National Geographic. And it's so calm, so beautiful, so... meditative I guess. Thank you!
Always loved your videos. Almost all of them. But the experiences in which you go camping is really something else. We can clearly see the pure joy you feel when you discover epic locations to camp and shoot. The first video of yours that got me hooked was your Isle of Skye trip. More please!!
Hi Thomas! I must admit that every day when I come back from the office, and I'm quite demoralised, you allways transver me such energy, revitalise my will for landscape photography and push me to go on! I allways love to check your work before I go to sleep and thanks to you my brain start thinking where to go next, what to choose for shooting, composition, your tips, planing and so on... Keep going, dont stop and if you will ever want to come to visit Croatia, to descover some interesting locations, you are allways wellcome!!!😊😊😊🤗🤗🤗👍👍👍👍Give me a call!! Thx!
I am thinking to go on holiday to Croatia in September (hopefully escape the main tourist spots) can you recommend any great scenic spots? I know there are quite a few.
Croatia is the most beautiful country I have ever seen from a plane. Never been on the ground there myself. But family and friends have been. It's so beautiful. It's on my wish list.
I always look forward to Wednesdays nowadays, and today was no disappointment as usual. Great views, great editing, great music, you are always give great inspiration. So inspiring. Cheers!
Loved the video, brought back memories of last year when my mate Andy and I camped beside the 'old' bothy at Camasunary Beach in an attempt to climb Sgurr na Stri. Beaten back by a storm and spent a wild night in the tent. I eventually managed to camp on top of Sgurr na Stri two weeks ago at Easter, it was a magical experience waking up to the sun striking the Cuillin mountains.
Great Stuff!! Watching Thomas Heaton videos makes me wanna quit my life and spend the rest of it adventuring and taking photographs in the worlds most stunning locations. But for now I'll keep watching, and looking forward to part 2 of this adventure.
Oh for goodness sake Thomas. This is back to your VLOG roots and then some !! An absolutely nailed-on piece of work that makes us all wish we could just pack the car and be there. Can't wait for the next instalment from the Outer Hebrides. Thank you for posting.
Another great video, Thomas! I think your skill as a storyteller really shines through in your videos, and is probably part of the secret to your photography. Keep up the fantastic work!
Thomas, yet another amazing video and a fabulous shot, even with seemingly grey everything :) I have request, can you please do a video on location scouting and what are your tips on finding locations, navigating and of course safety. Thanks a bunch.
We were just in Skye and the Outer Hebrides in February (and last May as well) and this video brings back wonderful memories! And gives me some much needed motivation to finish editing my photos!
Just discovered your videos , Tom and I have to say you're an inspiration to any would-be landscape photographer along with the more experienced ones too ! I took up photography after becoming disabled in 2011 so am unable to get to the more out of the way places such as yourself - however living up here on Skye I get more opportunities than most - the biggest problem I have is motivation but having watched your videos I can feel it coming back , thanks , mate .
Great use of the elements Tom, with a lack of colour in the light, you used the beautiful curve of the creek to draw the in the eye nicely. I also liked the choice you made not to go with the polariser. It really helped make that feature standout. This looks like a gorgeous location that you could probably come make to time and time again. Looking forward too seeing the rest of the trip, thanks for sharing mate!
Hey, thanks a lot. The lack of polariser made all the difference and the location was a great one, you can just keep going and exploring past the bay and over those mountains. You just need more time.
Well done as usual Thomas. It was a simple yet enjoyable image. Goes to show it doesn't take a grand scale vista to create an outstanding image. Keep it up. John.
Thomas, if Visit Scotland had any sense they would commission you to promote the wonderful landscapes of Scotland (just as Visit England done). You have a talent to encapsulate the beauty of a place whether its through your images, your videos or your commentary. As a Scotsman, I would like to thank you for your wonderful videos of our beautiful country and hope you come back up to Scotland soon
Excellent vlog Tom as you are back, doing what you do best! You are no doubt home now but I hope Harris and Lewis was everything you hoped for and more. As always, take care on your travels mate.🍀👌
G'Day Thomas - been watching all your videos for some time now and love them. Have to say though that this is your best video for a long time - back to the style of your early videos which are for me the best.
That was great. I am so jealous of your trip to Skye, Harris and Lewis. The west coast of Scotland is my absolute favourite place in the world. I wish I could go with just a camera and a tent. Lucky chap.
You always make me envious with your gorgeous photography and your travels, but this makes me even more envious because I know Camasunary from daywalks on the Isle of Skye (which is the most beautiful island in Scotland to me).
We enjoy your videos! Quite often we find ourselves jealous that you live in the UK and have so many places within a decent drive. We're in Texas, so it's a drive to go anywhere to shoot landscapes, but we do have bluebonnets and longhorns. Thank you for all your work!
When I saw you step out of the car - I knew exactly where you were - my favourite place in the world ! This video has made my day:) superb as always 👌👌👍👍👍👍
"Who cares if this image is any good; look where I am!" I have proclaimed something very similar many times myself. Nature photography is a spiritual experience and at the end of the day, if you managed to get a nice image to show for it, then that is a nice prize to go along with your experience.
Another great video Tom!! One of the best things I have done in the past year is to wild camp in combination with photography! (Your fault! I was inspired and motivated by you Place Fell video) You're in the best possible place at the best possible time with the best possible light to take a great picture! Further more staying out in the landscape tunes your body and your thoughts in to the wilderness and I truly believe it shows in the end photo. It has mine and it most definitely does in yours! Keep up the great work!!
nice to see you exploring scotland lived up here now for a few years it is amazing for finding new and exciting places well done with the weather hope it holds up for you look forward to rest of the film and waffling lol great job
Awesome video as per! I love how informative you are, i feel like i learn something in each of your videos! Your shot ended up really beautiful aswell. Nice work!!
I shoot landscapes for relaxation and conceptual portraiture for exhibition but some times landscape just surprises the hell out of me when atmospheric conditions do a 'JMW Turner' and something special results. You get that nearly every shoot with persistence and a great eye.
IDEA!! Hey Thomas I think it is great when you speak about knowing the difference between when you need a polarizer and when it would actually be a bad idea. It would make a great piece of content to show the difference between the same shot with and without a polarizer and explaining it in post with your example. Anyway love the videos, keep it up!
Thank you for this video (in particular). I'm totally new to photography and have been watching many videos trying to get going. But this video was more inspirational than you could imagine. Why? Because you're driving through my back garden, this is where I live and feel lucky! (especially since I'm English and the good people of Scotland put up with me :) ) All your videos are great, keep it up sir :)
Hi Thomas. I was there the end of March. Had to visit there for a photography trip after watching your last video on Skye. An excellent weeks trip for photography. Recommend it to all. Thanks for all your advice and tips.
Hi Thomas, I just want to say amazing what you have done with your photography and youtube. You are like, some kind of photography motivator, your words are poison! And I thank you for that. And if you want more STUNNING and PHENOMENAL view for landscape photography, and to add some tropical taste, why don't choose Indonesia (if you ever heard) as your next trip? seriously you'll say STUNNING way more often than in your whole previous videos. I'd love to have you n my country and I'll definitely see you here. Cheers!
I spent 7 weeks of my life in the Strathaird Peninsula of Skye in 2012 doing my Undergraduate Geological mapping. Fell in love with the whole stretch of Skye from Elgol all the Way to Camasunary. Glad you avoided the attacking seagulls in the cliffs to the south! They would have stolen your drone.
I really enjoy your videos, they are inspirational. Also wanted to let you know I purchased your e-book and have been reading it. Great stuff. Sounds like I love to shoot landscapes for the same reasons you do. And as hard as it is to get out of bed sometimes, I absolutely love being out on the road in the dark hours of the morning and being on location as the sun rises. All before most have had their first cup of coffee. Looking forward to learning more from you as I continue through the book. :)
Great watching your videos. I was at fort william on tuesday climbing ben nevis (bit wet) but its great seeing up this way. I climb alot of munroes in scotland and keep thinking im going to bump into you one day. I live in the east of scotland
Thanks Thomas, just starting to get into photography combined with camping at location although I travelled quite a lot and always take my camera with me (never know what happens right?). Tips from your videos have already helped me a lot choosing locations/what to bring/what to buy so guess a massive thanks is in place!
thomas your tips are great mate. as a newbie in photography your videos are very informative!!! do more vlogs in Wales you wont regret it!!! well done and your photos are awesome!!
I went to that beach 2 years ago while they were still building the new bothy. Stopped there for lunch. When we walked back we took the coast path back and had to bash through the undergrowth! 😂 Good memories. Afterwards we went onto Harris and Lewis, so I can't wait to see what you do up there :)
Sincerely appreciated this lovely piece! To bad about the clouds sweeping in, but a kind image nonetheless. Cant wait for the next episode! This is gonna be grand. Cheers.
Dude i love your work and your adventures :) it's sooo entertaining =) i think just watching ur videos, i always anticipate the kind of photo you'll produce :) love it!
Thomas, your greatest feat is how well you connect with all of us. Most of us have never met you, but it feels like we know you so well. Thanks on behalf of the photography community :)

I've always wanted to visit Skye & Outer Hebrides, but for now I'll have to be content to live vicariously through your lens.
nothing like watching someone loving the moment they are in, thanks for taking us along for the ride!
I can't tell you how motivated I feel watching your videos. Every week you produce fantastic content however I must applaud you even further this week as I feel the photo in the video is one of the best you've taken. Keep up the good work!!
That's very kind, thank you.
What a lovely photo at the end. I would have never guessed that there would be such a beautiful image with a dull setting.
I look forward to every video you put out, Thomas. Have a great time out there!
The only TH-camr who's videos I always watch through and through, never skipping ahead.
I just realized that I'm watching your videos with the same facial expression that I usually get when I watch fabulous channels like BBC Earth or National Geographic. And it's so calm, so beautiful, so... meditative I guess. Thank you!
Brilliant as ever. Love the bit about knowing when not to use the polarizer. Your dedication to the craft continues to amaze me.
Simply the best photography channel on TH-cam. Please keep doing it.
That's very kind, thank you.
That sequence from 6:48 is just incredible. You have such a talent for drone photography and editing - with that music it's just awesome
Always loved your videos. Almost all of them. But the experiences in which you go camping is really something else. We can clearly see the pure joy you feel when you discover epic locations to camp and shoot. The first video of yours that got me hooked was your Isle of Skye trip. More please!!

yes, come to croatia! :D
I am thinking to go on holiday to Croatia in September (hopefully escape the main tourist spots) can you recommend any great scenic spots? I know there are quite a few.
are you looking for photography or a general relaxation? what type of nature do you like? :)
Hey, thanks a lot. It's great to hear that these videos help in some way. I really do appreciate your comment.
Croatia is the most beautiful country I have ever seen from a plane. Never been on the ground there myself. But family and friends have been. It's so beautiful. It's on my wish list.
I always look forward to Wednesdays nowadays, and today was no disappointment as usual.
Great views, great editing, great music, you are always give great inspiration. So inspiring.
Cheers!
Nice video Thomas. I like how even with very little to play with you have got a cracking image. Fantastic. Skye is such a beautiful place.
I could feel the atmosphere right from my phone Thomas! Music was a perfect accompaniment to what looked like a relaxed travel day
Love going through old Heaton videos, one of the benefits of lockdown!
Yes! Back to the roots!
Loved the video, brought back memories of last year when my mate Andy and I camped beside the 'old' bothy at Camasunary Beach in an attempt to climb Sgurr na Stri. Beaten back by a storm and spent a wild night in the tent. I eventually managed to camp on top of Sgurr na Stri two weeks ago at Easter, it was a magical experience waking up to the sun striking the Cuillin mountains.
Miss the old bothy, special place in my heart for Camasunray. Glad you made it up on your second visit, I've not been so lucky on the Cuillins.
one of your best videos for a long time wish it was an hour long
Great Stuff!! Watching Thomas Heaton videos makes me wanna quit my life and spend the rest of it adventuring and taking photographs in the worlds most stunning locations. But for now I'll keep watching, and looking forward to part 2 of this adventure.
I could only ever dream of going to a place like this. What an amazing looking place!
wow, amazing, I could feel the atmosphere from my phone, can't wait for the next episode, as always keep up the good work 🌞
Oh for goodness sake Thomas. This is back to your VLOG roots and then some !! An absolutely nailed-on piece of work that makes us all wish we could just pack the car and be there. Can't wait for the next instalment from the Outer Hebrides. Thank you for posting.
What can I say, fantastic, so looking forward to the rest of the trip.
your scotland trip vids are my fav! looking forward to part2
Adventure and exploration is number one. And where is that there is somewhere a great composition for stunning photo. Great video Thomas!
Another great video, Thomas! I think your skill as a storyteller really shines through in your videos, and is probably part of the secret to your photography. Keep up the fantastic work!
Thomas, yet another amazing video and a fabulous shot, even with seemingly grey everything :) I have request, can you please do a video on location scouting and what are your tips on finding locations, navigating and of course safety. Thanks a bunch.
I second that!
Thomas, the edit on this video was ace, you were always good but getting better and better! Good job fella! Inspiring every time 👍
We were just in Skye and the Outer Hebrides in February (and last May as well) and this video brings back wonderful memories! And gives me some much needed motivation to finish editing my photos!
Just discovered your videos , Tom and I have to say you're an inspiration to any would-be landscape photographer along with the more experienced ones too !

..." I ain't stayin in no hotel". Beautifully said. Great video as usual!!
As always, brilliant work! BTW Love the Utah shirt! Thanks for representing!
Absolutely fantastic

Well done as usual Thomas. It was a simple yet enjoyable image. Goes to show it doesn't take a grand scale vista to create an outstanding image. Keep it up. John.
This episode was aweome! I cant wait for the next one!

You have a talent to encapsulate the beauty of a place whether its through your images, your videos or your commentary. As a Scotsman, I would like to thank you for your wonderful videos of our beautiful country and hope you come back up to Scotland soon
Excellent vlog Tom as you are back, doing what you do best! You are no doubt home now but I hope Harris and Lewis was everything you hoped for and more.
As always, take care on your travels mate.🍀👌
G'Day Thomas - been watching all your videos for some time now and love them. Have to say though that this is your best video for a long time - back to the style of your early videos which are for me the best.
That was great. I am so jealous of your trip to Skye, Harris and Lewis. The west coast of Scotland is my absolute favourite place in the world. I wish I could go with just a camera and a tent. Lucky chap.
Thank you Thomas! You are true Inspiration for more people than I or everyone else knows. :) Cheers to you!
Definitely not rubbish, a beautiful picture!
The VO is a good idea. It gives the video an adventure like feeling, and i liked it. 👍🏻
You always make me envious with your gorgeous photography and your travels, but this makes me even more envious because I know Camasunary from daywalks on the Isle of Skye (which is the most beautiful island in Scotland to me).
Brother, you are an inspiration... God bless you
Great video as always Tom. Already looking forward to the next one.
Fanbloodytastic Thomas, what an amazing place
It is always a pleasure to see your videos Thomas :)
We enjoy your videos! Quite often we find ourselves jealous that you live in the UK and have so many places within a decent drive. We're in Texas, so it's a drive to go anywhere to shoot landscapes, but we do have bluebonnets and longhorns. Thank you for all your work!
Nice one +ThomasHeaton, like going back in time to your old vids, original tunes, camping again, awesome stuff 😬😬
I'm not even being sarcastic ha ha, I just read back what I had written 🙈 looking forward to beyond the ferry 👌🏼
Great video Thomas...Another place to add to my bucket list.
Simple, beautiful and a great vlog!
Its all been said already - BRILLIANT
I like the voice over! I think it adds a great dynamic to the video :) Thanks for sharing.
When I saw you step out of the car - I knew exactly where you were - my favourite place in the world ! This video has made my day:) superb as always 👌👌👍👍👍👍

Thank you.
I envy you, all these fantastic locations. another great video,very informative.......looking forward to the Harris video :)
Awesome video as per! I love how informative you are, i feel like i learn something in each of your videos! Your shot ended up really beautiful aswell. Nice work!!
I shoot landscapes for relaxation and conceptual portraiture for exhibition but some times landscape just surprises the hell out of me when atmospheric conditions do a 'JMW Turner' and something special results. You get that nearly every shoot with persistence and a great eye.
I really envy you Thomas, going to all these wonderful places!......Ah well, one day, when my kids are older.

All your videos are great, keep it up sir :)
Really enjoyed you sharing your though process on why you chose not to use the polarizer. Very cool.
Thoroughly enjoyed it!!!
inspired me to go out and shoot this weekend, thanks man!
Lovely video, that bit in the beginning couldn't be more true.
Another fantastic video, thanks.
Great episode as always Thomas!

so beautiful scenery
Inspirational as always!
Just when i think you carn't get any better . great 👍
I like the voice over stuff. It gives you time to think out, plan, and focus what you want to say in the video. Keep mixing it up. See you next week
As I've said before, you're a brilliant storyteller! I really like the VO! :)
pro trick : you can watch series on flixzone. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies recently.
@Anders Lian yea, I've been using flixzone for since november myself :)
Your videos are always good but this takes the biscuit. Natural and brilliant :)
Great watching your videos. I was at fort william on tuesday climbing ben nevis (bit wet) but its great seeing up this way. I climb alot of munroes in scotland and keep thinking im going to bump into you one day. I live in the east of scotland
