glennbuchan Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 I've just recently bought a DSLR after years of playing around with point and shoots and I'm looking for good places around Aberdeen where I can go and get some nice shots? I was out at Blair's Museum last night and found it amazing! I've lived here all my life and never seen it. It's HUGE! Also went to Rob Roy Caravan park and that was pretty cool too! Anyway, I'm sure there's thousands of places around here but it would be nice to have a few suggestions! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panda Strong Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 when you say blair's museum, you don't mean this place do you? ;Blairs Museum - Visit Uslooks kinda different to the pictures. also, where is the rob roy caravan park? pretty cliche place to go get photos now i guess, but still i've never been and fancy a wander..., it is pretty safe, right?

framheim Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 What kind of things are you looking for? Winter gardens are good for macro stuff or there are tons of amazing castles in aberdeenshire. Girdleness is good for the lighthouse, torry battery and wildlife. Lichen muick for amazing landscapes. All depends what you like taking photos of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
