If you like the Scottish Hills, particularly the North West Highlands or the Cairngorms, then bookmark this page. What follows is a collection of photos I've taken over recent years (although a few date back to 1983). I've tried to split the pictures up roughly into geographical regions, but due to overlap and sparse coverage in some areas, this is a bit tenuous. Lastly, it's only fair to point out that you are not going to see very much unless your browser supports frames.

If these pages prompt you to take to the hills, email me to let me know where and why.

  • The late Tom Weir's writings have been an inspiration for me to visit some of the places you will find photographed on this web site. Tom was a national treasure whose snapshots of the land and it's people in the TV series "Weir's Way" have inspired countless people since it's first showing in 1976. STV/SMG have been repeating this popular series for many years, for which Tom never received financial gain. An STV/SMG tribute to Tom and his contribution to both the popularisation and preservation of the Scottish landscape is long overdue. I invite you to add your name to this online petition to persuade STV/SMG to do the right thing.
