    You're right, there's always something to shoot at the coast. I went to Seaham yesterday not realising it was so rough. The lighthouse getting a good pounding made for some good photos.

    I was surprised when I saw West Coast Scotland at No 5, but take your point, it's shooge place! And for anyone thinking of coming here, we're starting to see early signs of winter, so please make sure to bring full mountain clothing and footwear, and tell people where you expect to be going. Makes the mountain rescue people's job so much easier! 👍

    I'm going to be in North/West Scotland in March (probably getting rained on), tramping around the mountains with my camera. Nice to see that area right off the jump in the video 😁

    Awesome, will add them to the bucket list if I ever get there. Totally understand about not giving specific places. It is sad when people who claim to be all about the environment have no clue as to the damage that they do by doing the things they do to get attention.

    Hi Adam - I'm relatively new to photography and enjoy your content. I wanted to add my support for your policy of not naming exact locations. I live just outside a West Yorkshire town and moderate a FB Group with around 900 members who have an interest in the flora and fauna of the valley were we live. A few years ago a black fox was seen in the valley and this was discussed on the group. I received a message within a few hours of the first post to say that the sighting was already being discussed on a hunting forum. Since then we avoid giving exact locations of wildlife or fungi or flowers to preserve the area and the residents.

    Some excellent locations there Adam. I’ve walked the Cleveland Way and absolutely loved the North York Moors and coastline. I’ve never been there with the camera though. I’ll definitely doing that before the year is out so thanks for a timely reminder. The Peaks is my local area and as beautiful as it is, it also suffers from a popularity problem, particularly at heather season!

    • @Firstmanphotography

      Yes. I've spent my fair share of hours on those edges waiting for people to leave. Basically given up on sunset times and mainly try for the quieter sunrises.

    Great video Adam. Your comments about those who never went outside, and are now omnipresent in less trodden places, must be a worldwide phenomenon. I live 4500 miles SW of you and noticed this condition about the same time you alluded to. Seems the only thing that keeps them at home is Texas summers when it's 40C or winters when it is < -5C. Love your work. Cheers.

    The same thing happened here in the States. Indoor people could no longer be indoors during the pandemic and were forced to go outside. Now so many places are overrun with indoor people that don't know how to respect the outdoors.

    We hiked Hadrian's Wall a week after the famous sycamore tree was cut down, and people were just broken up over it...angry, sad, bewildered...the whole gamut. Baffling behaviour by those who did it.

    How the hell did Wales get missed off the list??? It is a mini Scotland and for that reason makes it less over-whelming, more manageable plus the hiking and sheer variety of landscapes are equal (if not better) than many on this list.

    You are right. Don't share your locations. Your work is wonderful and you owe no one any information about how you create your photos. Protect nature at all costs.
