The Road To Skyfall

The Iconic Road to Skyfall used in the James Bond Film of the same name is the focus of my journey in this video.
I've spent the past few days in and around the area of Glencoe in Scotland and each location has left me inspired as a photographer and this location is no different. Soaring snowcapped peaks cradle a winding road which follows the meandering river through the mountain scape.
It truly is one of the best photography areas to visit in Scotland.
Thing don't go quite to plan as I explain how easy it is to muck up your compositions and how, just because the scene is awesome doesn't always make a good picture!

Great images Simon. I'm up there in a couple of weeks so thanks for the inspiration. That intro alone has got the creative juices flowing 🙂

Liked and subscribed! Great video with excellent shots and locations. I was near the lone tree location back in October 2023 and was treated to three Golden Engles battling in the skies just off the mountain tops. Glen Etive is one of my favourite glens - can never understand why so many people race to the loch at the end and then head straight back to Glencoe without stopping off along the way.

Hey thank you for your comment, welcome aboard!!! Wow Golden eagles… that’s something I’ve never seen. I hadn’t seen anything from the Skyfall rd and didn’t realise it exists until I noticed it on the map back in the hotel! Glad I made the effort to visit though. Glad you liked the video, I have one more which I’m looking forward to sharing later in the week which will round off my Scotland trip. So looking forward to going back there one day soon! 👍👍👍

Top Drawer .. For film locations ... Plaza De Espana in Sevilla , Spain featured in David Lean's seminal classic Lawrence of Arabia ..The King Alfonso Hotel also in Sevilla also used in the film for interior scenes .. Visited the Sevilla 3yrs on the trot , Can't be faulted ...well worth a visit .

great video! I need to try to find that lone tree, I thought I knew Glen Etive quite well but can't quite place where that is. (that's my excuse for going back up soon, sorted, cheers!)

Thank you Mr. Bond/Jerome's, for another great video. That's the trouble when you're dealing with such epic scenery. You're trying to fit everything in all at once.
