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 for 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. Each episode features different cameras that Calum has chosen to use all with his distinctive enthusiasm and flair! 

In this episode, Calum is in the Scottish Borders, using an electric bicycle on a trip near Peebles and aiming to take a photograph in the former Neidpath tunnel. This abandoned tunnel is still open to the public, 800m long, but also pitch black and therefore challenging circumstances for any photographer.
