The beauty of living in East Lothian is being able to photograph the scenery in all weathers. While I love a beautiful sunrise as much as the next landscape photographer, you can’t beat a good stormy day with lots of drama to get the creative juices flowing.

Take this image for example. This shot was taken on the Fujifilm X-Pro2 and the XF100-400mm telephoto to compress the perspective, making Bass Rock appear to be a lot closer to my position in Belhaven than it actually is, which is about 7 miles away. All I had to do was wait for someone to walk into the frame to give the image a focal point.

The picture was converted to monochrome from the RAW file in NIK Silver EFEX Pro2 software using a customised preset that I have set up.
