Calum Maclean combines his love of exploring far-flung places with that of photography. Featuring stunning locations from around Scotland - from the northern Highlands to the Borders, the Aberdeenshire coast to the islands of Argyll - each episode sees Calum embark on a unique journey that culminates in opportunities to capture special photos.

His mode of travel is as varied as the locations, all the while keeping his keen photographer’s eye peeled for evocative shots employing different photographic techniques.

In this episode, Calum travels by sea kayak to reach his destination of Belnahua, one of the Slate Islands. He is keen to capture a photo of an old wooden cart which was used in the quarry. His challenge is firstly to find the old cart which is submerged and then to capture an image underwater.
