A Leica Road Trip

In this week's photography tutorial, I go on a road trip to the stunning Scottish Highlands in search of landscape, travel, documentary and nature photography opportunities, using just my Leica Q3 43.

I show what I look for in my photos, from the compositions I use to the best camera settings to get the looks that I want. I also drink some beer.

I based myself in Ullapool in Scotland and travelled around various parts of the local area looking for the best photo spots. I love travelling light with a small camera like this.

The beautiful black leather camera strap with Peak Design anchors built in is from Bowman Leather in the UK: https://www.bowmanleather.co.uk/shop-...
