This video will make you want to go to Scotland right now


This aerial short film by freelance videographer John Duncan totally reflects the vast diversity of Scotland. From magnificent glens and impressive mountains to long-winding lochs and a gasp-worthy sky, the people who live here really have it good.

"Making this film involved a series of mini adventures," Duncan says. Hiking up Bidein a'Ghlas Thuill at 3am in the pitch dark, to film the spectacular serrated ridge of An Teallach, and hearing stags roaring in the valleys below is a memory that will stay with me for a very long time."

Aside from this stunning video, the Edinburgh-based filmmaker also released a 4.5-minute behind-the-scenes clip with a look at how the project was done.

Hand-Painted Bags That Tell Your Story

  Most bags today look like they were produced by bored machines in a dimly lit factory. You can walk into any mall and find rows of identical leather (or “leather-like”) things, all claiming to express individuality. Ironically, though, they all look exactly the same. Then there’s Abby Verano . Her bags are not mere accessories; they’re declarations. Each one is hand-painted, touched by an actual human being with an imagination. Abby doesn’t just sell you something to put your wallet and smartphone in; she sells you a story, a vision, a little revolt against the tyranny of sameness.  Her tools are simple — brushes, acrylic paint, bags made from pandan leaves, and creativity. No duplicates. No clones. Just one-of-a-kind art pieces you can carry.
