The Story of Scotland's Mountains - A Documentary

A Journey to Glencoe's Finest Viewpoint with Murray Wilkie

The primary goal of the video content I produce is to share my passion for landscape photography. By sharing my adventures, I hope that my films inspire more photographers to head outdoors with their cameras to capture beautiful landscapes.

As well as providing inspiration, I also gain inspiration from other photographers and YouTube content creators. One of my favourite channels is Scotland’s Mountains. On the channel you’ll find Murray Wilkie hill walking and climbing the hills and mountains of Scotland. Not only is his content inspiring, but more sentimentally than that, it reminds me of home.

One of the things I like to do on my channel is to share the stories of the people that inspire me by making documentaries about them. You may have already seen my documentaries about Chris Sale and Nick Livesey. Though I don’t make documentaries very often, I am passionate about them, so you can imagine my excitement when Murray agreed that I could make one about him.

What you are about to watch is the result of that collaboration. I join Murray on one his world-famous walks, on a route he’s never walked before to (hopefully) find one of Glencoe’s finest viewpoints. Along the way I ask Murray about his passion for hillwalking, his photography, his life on YouTube, and most importantly, what his favourite mountain snack is!

Sit back, relax, and enjoy “Scotland’s Mountains - The Murray Wilkie Story”.

Glencoe Photos

As with any of the documentaries I produce, filming my subject is my primary focus. However, I did manage to find the time to take a photograph of the mighty fine view Murray guided me to.
