Welcome to My Saturday Drive

I 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.

This is what Dalveen Pass looks like when the view opens up, going towards Thornhill! Quite a vast landscape! Difficult to convey this, at least on the day, as I was struggling to find a subject! The wind was quite strong as well and had to compensate for it with higher ISO. Hope everyone is having an awesome Monday! mysaturdaydrive.com
Barren views on Dalveen Pass! Would you live there, under the hill? Imagine going out to get the mail 😅 "I'm going on an adventure!" I shall take my hobbit jokes an see myself out. Happy Sunday! mysaturdaydrive.com
What's everyone up to this weekend? We are on a wee drive to Isle of Skye! Pictures will of course come soon but in the meantime, have a wee look at what it looks like on Dalveen Pass! It's a great little stint of a road between Elvanfoot and Thornhill, about an hour south of Glasgow! If you love your driving, this is a must! The views are amazing and the road is superb! mysaturdaydrive.com
And, finally, last of the sunset series from Pentlandite Regional Park. I hope you've enjoyed them as much as I did taking them! Which was your favourite? mysaturdaydrive.com
Here goes the second to last image of the pink winter sky series! And with it, I just want to wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day! Hope your day is as pink as that sky 😅. And since we are celebrating love, what about Scotland do you love the most? mysaturdaydrive.com
Which one do you prefer? I kinda want the second one with the mountain from the first one! Cast your vote below! Also when will @instagramforbusiness allow multiple photos with custom aspect ratio? 😅 Apologies for the square photos! mysaturdaydrive.com
I thought it wouldn't be fair if I didn't give the frozen loch a chance to show it's beauty! After all, without it, that beautiful sky would not pop this much! What are your thoughts? More loch and white, or more sky and pink? I can't decide 😅 mysaturdaydrive.com
Here's another angle of that beautiful sky! 😍😍 For months I've been hoping to get some minimalist shots. Who knew it would have been on a frozen Loch on a crisp winter sunset?!Hope everyone is having a ln awesome start of the week! mysaturdaydrive.cim
As promised here's another shot of that beautiful winter sunset sky. Needless to say, this is now my wallpaper 😅 it's just so delicious!! Hope you enjoy it just as much as I am! mysaturdaydrive.com
Hi everyone! Hope you are all having an awesome weekend. Was afraid it would be rainy today but managed to doge it and went for a wee drive (pictures to come soon). In the meantime I would like to show you a series of pics from one of the most beautiful winter sunsets I had ever experienced. Here's the first one. Hope you like it! mysaturdaydrive.com
Happy Friday everyone! The weather is a bit pants right now in Glasgow (horizontal rain..) so here's a little something to cheer up the mood: a reminder of how you can see all 4 seasons in the period of an hour in Scotland haha😅. This was looking like a lovely sunny winter day when all of a sudden it was starting to snow. Literally 1 mile up the road from this place you were in winter wonderland! Shot on A93 on the way to Glenshee! mysaturdaydrive.com
Views on views from the side of the road, somewhere next to Glenshee. Nothing particularly exciting, just a beam of light radiating from behind the hill! I thought it would make an interesting shot, so I took it! What do you think? mysaturdaydrive.com
Appreciation post alert! It's #wcw and I have to say @mysaturdaydrive would not be possible without the constant encouragement and support of @maryannepugh_ ! She's an amazing partner and travel companion and I love her! Who's your travel companion? Tag em below! mysaturdaydrive.com
Here's something different for today. Found this tractor at @freshtracksglenshee while stopped for food on a beautiful snowy day. It was quite the atmosphere: thick flakes, dead quiet air and a certain moody/relaxing winter vibe which I hope I am able to convey with this edit! How many astray travellers do you think this wee man pulled out of the ditch during his days of glory? mysaturdaydrive.com
Half of the time I spend travelling is dedicated to photography and enjoying the view. The other half I spend waving at sheep and seeing them freak out 😂 @maryannepugh_ 👀👀. Hope you enjoy this pic from Glenshee during a recent snowstorm. Happy Monday folks!! mysaturdaydrive.com
Sometimes, the hell with the rule of thirds! What do you think? 😀. This lonely tree was shot somewhere next to Glenshee, in the Cairngorms. Hope everyone's had an awesome weekend! mysaturdaydrive.com
How's everyone's weekend so far?😀 Here's what it looked like at the snow gates at Glenshee last weekend 😍. Who likes snow? mysaturdaydrive.com
Last shot taken on the hike to Steall Falls! A little waterfall right on the footpath, looking like milk flowing from the rock! I am surprised how sharp it is, given I shot it handheld! Hope you enjoyed these pics! mysaturdaydrive.com
Steall Falls at blue hour. I shot this from the hill right across from it. Spectacular views and well worth the trek on the side of the mountain! Have you been there before? mysaturdaydrive.com
Here's the wider angle of yesterday's shot. I just can't get enough of these hills 😍. Besides the Cairngorms and Glencoe area, what other hills would you like to see photographed? Headed to Skye in a couple of weeks, so any on the way to and there would be a great! Fire suggestions down below! mysaturdaydrive.com
