I've just been to pick up my full size print of the lion portrait. It's absolutely stunning, so pleased with it. The details are nice and sharp and the blacks are beautifully rich.

If you're interested in ordering a giclée print please DM me.

One of my favourite places in Scotland, Glen Etive. The views here are stunning in every direction, they also filmed Skyfall here.

A gloomy end to the day in Glencoe save for this little patch of light on the hillside. I never get tired of this view, the majestic beauty of this region always helps recharge the batteries.

From the trail start at Ben Nevis Inn, we climbed for about an hour and 45 minutes, not sure of elevation

Steven Bernard @sdbernard.bsky.social · 22d

We did a partial climb of Ben Nevis today and were rewarded with stunning views of the valley below. Once again the light was incredible.

Worth getting up at 3.30am to get this shot of the stars in Glencoe. Planning a trip to the Cotswolds in the winter, hoping to get a shot of the Milky Way. Always been on my bucket list after seeing it when I was a kid on top of Mount Tiede in Tenerife. Any location suggestions would be appreciated

The stunning view on the way up Hardknott Pass in the Lake District. It was a sunshine/shower kind of day and the ever changing light made for some incredible scenes.

Cheers Sven, first time I've been in September, normally go in July. A bit wetter but the light is incredible

Steven Bernard @sdbernard.bsky.social · 27d

Thank you, the light was literally changing by the second.

Steven Bernard @sdbernard.bsky.social · 28d

I never grow tired of the ever changing scenery of the Lake District. These two shots were taken 2 hours apart from the top of Walla Crag. I love how you can see the rain falling in the valley and the sunlight bursting through the clouds

It's been almost a year since my father passed away and I thought a fitting tribute would be to do a portrait of him that captured his happy go lucky character. I was a bit worried about tackling this as I haven't done a portrait for 33 years! Have to say I think I did the old man proud
