Welcome to My Saturday Drive

cropped-tom-sini-709335-unsplash1.jpgI created this blog out of my passion for cars, driving, travelling and photography and I would like to take you on a journey with me as I explore some of the best driving roads in the world!

Specifically, I will be doing a lot of driving around Scotland and the rest of the United Kingdom, since this is where I live. But as I travel to other places around the world, I will make sure to capture the drive on my Articles section.

If you would just like to scroll through beautiful pictures I take along the way then head over to my Photography section.

I love the Cairngorms! Here's a reason why - the trees are amazing! Not too versed in my tree species, but I think this is a Scots Pine tree. The colours you see are not caused by the sun, it is actually the colour of the bark! Do you like it? mysaturdaydrive.com
Nothing to see here folks! Just a cheeky nugget posing in front of this stunning backdrop! 📷😅 mysaturdaydrive.com
Happy #coosday folks! This big guy received a lot of love last Tuesday, so here we have him again, this time with one of his mates, at @muthu_newton_hotel in Nairn. They were just the sweetest, don't you think? 😍😍 mysaturdaydrive.com
Let's start the week with some stunning views from the Cairngorms!! Swipe ➡ to see a bit of composite art I made of it, trying to add a bit of snow and winter feel to it! Do the snow dance, people 😂! This needs to happen! mysaturdaydrive.com
Happy Sunday folks! Here's a little HDR I did of the Cairngorms from the side of Loch Morlich. Apparently, snow is meant to hit Scotland next weekend. Who's excited for it? I know I am 😅📷📷 mysaturdaydrive.com
This handsome fella received lots of love from you guys, so here's a another shot of him, this time with his buddies. They were all looking towards the tour guide who had a big sack of food 😅. I guess they have their priorities straight 😂. Would you be this patient waiting for food? mysaturdaydrive.com
New blog post out! At the beginning of the year, I posted what I thought was my best picture ever. Head over to the LINK IN BIO to read more about how to get to the Devil's Pulpit and what I think makes a good photo. I think it's not just the light, the composition or the camera you are using! I think it's the journey and the experiences you go through to get a certain photo that make it a great photo! What are your thoughts? mysaturdaydrive.com
Ladies and gents, I give you the prince of Cairngorm! 😅 Such a pretty little beast. Met him and his friends at @cairngormreindeer . You get to feed, pet and walk amongst them. Did you know they can't bite and that they can withstand temps as low as -70 Celsius? mysaturdaydrive.com
I just can't get enough of the sunset pics I took at Aird Jetty! The light was so soft and the colours were way too delicious not to be snap happy! Sunset or sunrise? What's your pic? mysaturdaydrive.com
Happy #coosday folks! Met this lovely fella and his mates at @muthu_newton_hotel in Nairn this weekend. Very playful animals and I highly recommend you stop by if you're passing through Nairn! Don't you love a coo? 😍 mysaturdaydrive.com
Business as usual somewhere in the Highlands 😂. Sheep chasing each other can be quite entertaining. mysaturdaydrive.com
Good evening Scotland! Another stunning sunset in the bag! Don't you just love golden hour lighting? mysaturdaydrive.com
"Typical" views in the Cairngorms.. can I please move to Aviemore? 😂 mysaturdaydrive.com
Let's end the first week of the year with this beautiful sunset at Aird Jetty! Hope everyone has had an awesome first week of 2019.. still feels weird to write it, doesn't it? mysaturdaydrive.com
Stunning views as always in Scotland 😍😍. Here's a typical shot from Rest and Be Thankful Commemorative Stone rest stop on the A83. Not shown is @maryannepugh_ and I just chilling on the bench and enjoying these amazing views. I put this picture up so that you guys can enjoy it to! mysaturdaydrive.com
Here's a lovely capture by @maryannepugh_ on our annual New Year's Day drive, right before we realized the car wouldn't be able to take us on the full tour we planned 😔. Oh well, it was a bit of a bummer to start the year off with a bit of a negative but onwards and forwards is the best way to go! Car will be fixed and we will be back on the road soon! mysaturdaydrive.com
Let's start #2k19 with a bang! As promised, here's my best shot of 2018, literally taken hours before the year ended. It's a special picture to me, not because of what it's in it, but because of what went on in the background to get to take it. It's been so special that I am even going to write a post about how I got to take it. Stay tuned for that and keep an eye on the website. mysaturdaydrive.com
Last post of the year and it's more of a tease for what's to come. Today I took what I think was my best photo of 2018 (not this one, but the same place) and I can't wait to share it with you. Can you guess where it is? Thank you all who have been following and engaging with @mysaturdaydrive since its inception and I can't wait for 2019 for more exciting trips and photography opportunities to share with you all. Happy New Year to you all! mysaturdaydrive.com
This was shot exactly one year ago at Queen Elizabeth Forest Park after a nice coat of snow fell. Let's hope we get to see some snow this winter! Who's with me? mysaturdaydrive.com
A bit of a change in scenery today. Love a good walk on the beach to clear the head and also first time on the field, trying out Santa's (@maryannepugh_ )present 📷 . Let me know if you see what I am talking about 😉. mysaturdaydrive.com
