THE PERFECT ENDING TO OUR CAMPER VAN ADVENTURES ON ARRAN
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ต.ค. 2024
- Photography is not everyone's 'cuppa tea', however, for us it is one of the reasons we travel in a van. We have waited patiently for the weather on Arran to be just right; we're not after blue skies or rain......just moody weather. Our last day on Arran pays off!

NC500 start
• Pt 1. The adventure be...
Apologies, it was not Glen Sannox that we visited (Sannox was the Glen we were going to visit but the weather was too poor), it was Glen Rosa. Sorry for any confusion....'my bad'!! 💙
The B&W photo of the cotton wool effect of the waterfall is awesome
Glad you liked it buddy, thank you. What a great location and the weather was perfect. Hope you're well and all the best as always.
Magnificent mood, motion and music. X
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. Take care and all the best, Tony and Claire. Xx
Beautiful Arran adventure with some stunning photography,thank you for sharing it all . Take care you two lovely honest people 🚐👍
Hi there buddy, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the very kind comment, it's very much appreciated by us both. Glad you liked the photography and it is our pleasure to be able to share it with you. Take care and all the very best as always, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷
Absolutely loved the Arran adventure guys. Brilliant....brilliant photography...love it all...love you dudes...here's to the next one! 😎😎😎👍
Love you too BIG WILL, many thanks for your kind words of support and positivity towards us, it's very much appreciated by us both. Cheers and all the very best as always. 👍💙❤️🚐📷
Beautiful work. Thanks for explaining your photographic techniques. Really enjoyed your video 😃🚐💙 Trev n Sue
Thank you Trev and Sue, glad you enjoyed the photography, it's very much appreciated. Thanks for leaving the kind comment. All the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷
Evening both, well that was a very productive hike, it really makes me understand why photography is so important to you. I would normally go for the b/w print but on this occasion the colour print of the glen, waterfalls and mountains has that something special. If you ever get round to selling prints I would really love that particular one. Arran has been a pleasant surprise well worth the visit. Look forward to the next leg. ❤❤🚐🏴🍺🍺 Al
Good evening Al.
Thank you!! Photography is not only our 'thing', it's very much a reason to get out and about and to exercise; coupled with Freddie, it's the perfect combination.
Yes, we are definitely still looking to sell prints, however, we are still working out the best way to get them printed, returned to us for proofing before posting.....and doing this from France, in between adventures etc. Very difficult as we definitely need to see the prints first. Your encouragement is very much appreciated by us both...thank you so much! Take care and all the very best as always our friend. 👍💙❤️📷🚐🏴
Another great video guys, should be sponsored but that may come with expectations. Thanks for the hard work.
Hi there, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the very kind comment, sponsorship would be awesome lol, doubt it will happen though. Many thanks again for your kind words of support. Take care and all the very best, Tony and Claire.
Lovely video really enjoyed it, you have been to so many different places.
Thank you for taking us with you.
See you next time, take care
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it and it's absolutely our pleasure to be able to share our adventures with you. Many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the kind comment. All the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷
Thanks yet again for the video guys, greatly appreciated. Saves us expats the air fare as we are still able to visit without the travel, us Northerners are cheap after all.
Haha, bloody cheap 'northerners' lol. Still, it's a bloody long way to travel, that's why we watch folks in Canada and America doing their whole van thing.....us southerners can also be tight lol. Many thanks for watching and all the very best, Tony and Claire.
You were not in Glen Sannox, you are filming the Blue Pool at Glen Rosa
Indeed, I made the mistake whilst referring back to my saved locations on Google maps, Glen Sannox was the hike that we were unable to complete because of the bad weather. Many thanks for watching and all the best, Tony and Claire.
Hi, been good watching your perspective of Arran, as you say plenty more to see and do, I am an Arannach and wouldn't live anywhere else, haste ye back!
Hi there, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the kind comment. Arran is a beautiful place to visit and explore and we can definitely see why you wouldn't live anywhere else...stunning. To be fair, we didn't spend long enough on the island and obviously missed some beautiful locations and attractions.....one day we'd love to return. Many thanks again and all the very best, Tony and Claire.
Hi Tony & Claire I didn't do it justice either when i visited recently but i will be returning soon and with all your w3w i will see more this time and living in Edinburgh i don't have as far to go. thanks for all the videos i love when you visit Scotland .
Tom & Eunice
Hi there Tom and Eunice, we hope this finds you both well in beautiful Edinburgh. Yes, an incredible island that is very difficult to capture and experience the whole place. Glad you find the w3ws useful and enjoy your next visit. We absolutely love Scotland so hopefully we'll be back soon. Take care and all the very best, Tony and Claire.
Lovely series really enjoyed that😊👏👏
Thank you so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it. Many thanks and all the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️📷🚐

Hi there buddy, glad you enjoyed the 🏴 vids, it's very much appreciated. We hope that you have a cracking time on your holiday, Lochinver is absolutely beautiful, we love that area. Safe travels when you get to them and enjoy beautiful Scotland. Take care and all the best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷🏴
We’ve really enjoyed your Arran series, thanks for sharing it and the beautiful scenery and such fantastic photos and places to visit - all the very best David & Rachel 👍

Hi guys. I'm enjoying your Arran trip, and plan to go there soon. On your trip from Alyth to glen shee via glen isla did you visit Reekie Linn waterfall? Worth a visit for waterfall lovers.
Take care guys. I very much enjoy your videos.
Hi there, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the informative comment. No, we have not visited Linn waterfall, however, we've added it to our journal for a future visit....thank you for sharing.
Many thanks and take care, Tony and Claire.
Hi AVF team, WOW loved this vlog from one of our favourite countries Scotland 🏴 Amazing moody photos keep up the great work 🥰 from your kiwi fan still travelling in a caravan in winter nz
Hi there our fellow traveller, hope you're having a great time in the NZ winter👍. Yep, Scotland is definitely up there with the best, a wonderful country made for exploring🚐. Glad you liked the photos and lovely to hear from you, thanks.
Take care and all the best, safe travels our brethren. 👍💙❤️🚐
Hey Tony and Claire beautiful pictures tonight they were amazing I love a black and white picture especially with a waterfall 👌👌Shame you aren’t heading further up to Scotland 🏴 ❤ Great music as well. Isle of Skye 🤔🤔maybe not if you guys are going south. As always take care and stay safe ❤❤
Hi. Thank you, glad you enjoyed the photos. Haha, yep, black and white photography always suits a moody day and a waterfall👍📷.
Absolutely, it is definitely a shame that we couldn't make it as far north as Skye, our pennies couldn't stretch that far this time, but we will be returning one day👍💙❤️🏴.
As always, glad you enjoyed the music, it's very much appreciated. Thank you, take care also and all the very best. 💙❤️🚐
Stunning!
Quality!
Class!
Say no more!
And a book to save you pair in would be a great idea if you sell it??❤
Thanks guys as always…. After a shift chilling I’m now wanting to get out because of you.
Good morning, sorry for the late reply. Thank you so much for your kind words of support and positivity, such a lovely comment to receive👌👍.
If after watching this it has motivated you to get out and about, then our job is done....brilliant!
Many thanks again and all the very best as always, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐
Great, I really enjoyed yet another of your videos. Tony you are a good teacher as I knew nothing about camera techniques but you made it clear and interesting, thank you, it was fascinating. Cheers Richie.
Hi there Richie, many thanks for leaving the kind comment, it's very much appreciated and I (Tony), thank you for your kind words regarding the photography lesson lol. Cheers buddy and best wishes.
Realy enjoyed your Arran adventure
Hey up there, many thanks, glad you enjoyed the series, it's very much appreciated by us both. Take care and all the best, Tony and Claire.
Lovely vlog again…fabulous moody photos. Whilst i have a Panasonic G9 as my main camera, i find myself being a bit lazy and using my IPhone 14 Pro Max an awful lot…Using live on the iphone you can produce a very good milky effect on running water. look forward to your next venture.
Hi there, many thanks for watching. Yep, phones are very convenient for taking photos and to be fair, as technology improves and phone camera sensors increase the ability to capture more information, it won't be too long before the handheld camera is made more redundant.
Ah, the G9 is a great camera and you should use it more lol! The problem we have with phone photography is that the sensors are currently too small for large printing quality, but for digital photos and social media applications, they're great.
Many thanks again and all the very best, Tony and Claire
Hi guys. Great series of vids about Arran. Like you said plenty to do on the island and the scenery is fantastic. Glad you enjoyed your time there. Looking forward to seeing where you off to next trip. Take care guys.
Hi there Geoff, many thanks for your support throughout the series, it's very much appreciated. Yes, plenty to see and do on Arran, we just wished we hadn't lost so much of the footage. Oh well, onwards and upwards....or in our case....downwards/south. Take care also and all the very best as always. Tony and Claire.
Always love your Scotland videos and Mull is our fav island 👍
Hi there Jim, thank you buddy for the kind words. We are in agreement with you, our Scotland adventures are always great. Yep, Mull is certainly a special place, definitely up there with the best. Take care our friend and all the very best to you as always. 👍💙❤️🏴🚐📷
Well guys what a wonderful ending to your time on Arran,I could see myself having a wee dip in that lovely water 💦 of course that's not something you do lightly in Scotland, always make sure you have a full medical team standing by to resuscitate you 😂.
I agree 💯 that you should have paper copies of your photos, every time we come home my good lady always makes up an album, it's just so nice to look back on😊.
Well we had our summer 🌞 here in Scotland which was nice and lasted a couple of days, so we had our once a year picnic 🧺 in the lovely little town of biggar, which has a great chip shop and a great ice cream shop.
Anyway how's beautiful France this time of year 🤔.
Take care guys, and God bless 😎🏴🕊️
Hi there buddy, rather you than us, that water was freezing😰. There was no way that I was going for a dip and Claire's a medic👍🤔😂.
Yep, it's far too easy to take a picture on a phone and leave them there. A book or album is definitely the way to go👍📷.
😂🤣😂, 'had your summer'......good old Scotland weather lol. Glad you took advantage of your very short summer and still ventured out and about👍.
Surprisingly, the weather here is very hit and miss at the moment, but it's threatening to roll into summer any day👌🤞.
Hope this finds you both well and many thanks as always for watching and for taking the time to leave the comment. God bless also and best wishes our friend. 👍💙❤️🚐🏴📷
Lovely video guys. Stunning scenery. Hope the house build is going well. We are off to Norway Saturday. All the best, Dave and Sue.
Hi there both, hope you're well. Thank you, glad to hear that you enjoyed it. Wow, wow, wow....Norway....fantastic. One of our favourite adventures, what an amazing country! Safe travels and have a wonderful time both! All the best, Tony and Claire.
Remember what I said also you guys have a welcome to Skye here👌👌👌♥️
Thank you, we will definitely give you plenty of warning when we head to Skye and we'll meet for brew etc.....thank you💙❤️.
Great video again! Arran looks worth a visit with the ferry not being too expensive. Liked the run back for the camera at the end - done that before 😂
Hi there, many thanks for watching, glad to hear that you enjoyed it....including the run back for the camera lol. The things we do haha. All the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷
Great video ,many thanks to you both 👍🏻
Our thanks is with you for watching and for taking the time to leave the kind comment. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video. 👍💙❤️🚐📷
Beautiful photographs!
Hi there, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the kind comment, we're glad that you enjoyed the photography. Thank you again and all the very best, Tony and Claire.
My favourite UK island - but often bypassed. Thanks for spotlighting it.
Our thanks is with you for watching and for taking the time to leave the comment. Yep, we've been guilty of passing by Arran without a visit ourselves, however it's very much a beautiful place and we're glad that we had a great adventure there.
Many thanks again and all the very best, Tony and Claire.
The caption at 5.15 says Glen Sannox but it is Glen Rosa isn't it?
Yep, you're absolutely right, it was Glen Rosa.....I (Tony) pinned the wrong location and referred in the video to the Glen we were going to visit...bugger. Thanks for pointing out the mistake. All the best. Tony and Claire.
Yep, you've spotted our mistake, Glen Sannox was where we planned to visit, not where we actually ended up......A deliberate mistake lol. Many thanks for watching and for taking the time to correct our mistake. All the best, Tony and Claire.
You shared lots of good stuff despite the loss of footage. You must have taken LOADS!
That was a good road trip. Thanks!
Thank you. Indeed, we lost a lot of good footage that we would have loved to share, however, luckily, Arran still had plenty to show and share. Our thanks is with you for watching and for taking the time to leave the comment. All the very best, Tony and Claire.
Great ending to a fantastic series , well done guys , enjoyed it . Look forward to the next one xx.
Thanks as always Ken, glad you enjoyed it. Many thanks for your continued support mate, it's much appreciated by us both. Hope you're both well and best wishes. Xx
Love the idea of a Book T&C as you're right, hardly anyone ever looks back on their digital photos.
I have amassed over 120 photos of the amazing month when I returned to the Falklands but this time, with a good camera and a great selection of lenses together with a zest for wildlife.
I will soon turn those photos into a book. Would love you to see some of the images I took ❤️
Hi again. Yep, it's so very easy to leave your photos in digital format on your phone or on a hard drive etc, but a book is a great way to record your adventures.
That's the one regret we both have; we should have taken the opportunity to visit the Falklands on a photography trip before we left the service....what an incredible place to visit when you're not working there👍. Post your images on Instagram and tell us your handle and we'll follow you and take a look, we would love to see them👌📷.
Take care and all the very best.
@@adventurevanfreddie I am a technological imbecile and can't operate FB of insta so not on it. TH-cam is my absolute limit 😂
@@ianross04 haha, that's a shame mate, however, you should give Instagram a go, it's a great way of sharing photos and is pretty simple to use. All the best.
You love the scottish islands just wondered if you have been to the Orkney Isles? Stunning and so much history!😉
Hi, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the comment. No, the Orkney Isles are definitely on our bucket list, however, the closest we've been to them is John o' Groats whilst completing the NC500. We were very tempted to then, but decided to complete the NC500 tour. One for the future! Many thanks for the recommendation and for watching. Take care and all the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐🏴
Great ending to Arran. You spent a fair few days on Arran but absolutely not near enough time in the Borders ! You missed bucketloads of places and attractions in the Borders. Hope you are both well and as always slàinte 💙🤎🥃🥃🥃🫶👋
Absolutely our friend, definitely not enough time in the Borders, a great excuse to come back for sure, not that we need an excuse lol🤣. We've also got a good friend who lives that way and it would be great to catch up with him. Hope you're well buddy and many thanks as always for your support. Slainte and best wishes. Until we return!! 👍❤️💙🚐🥃🥃🥃
