Arbroath Harbour is always full of character, from the energy of locals leaping into the water to the calm stillness of sunset over the lighthouse. These moments, captured with my iPhone on a warm evening, highlight both the vibrancy of the community and the quiet beauty of the coastline.

Harbour life brings together energy and calm in equal measure. To see more of my work exploring Scotland’s coastline and industry, visit my Places and Industrial portfolios.

The Importance of Revisiting a Site – Photography Practice in Scotland

in ,
Photography series showing the importance of revisiting locations in Scotland, capturing how changing light and weather affect results.

Returning to familiar locations often produces new results. Light, weather, and season all change, meaning a second or third visit can reveal details that weren’t there before.

This series shows how repeat visits create variety. The same place shifts character depending on the conditions, offering new compositions and perspectives.

Revisiting sites is part of my regular approach, ensuring subjects are documented in different moods and at different times. It keeps even familiar places fresh.
