There are few structures in the world as instantly recognisable as the Forth Bridge. This UNESCO World Heritage site isn't just a feat of Victorian engineering; it is a symbol of Scotland’s connection and resilience. When I took my drone out to the Firth of Forth to capture this red giant, I wasn't just looking for a "cool shot" - I was looking to tell the story of its scale and the rhythm of the rail network.

An Immersive Perspective

In my latest video, I wanted to go beyond the visual. To truly experience the Forth Bridge, you have to hear it. The mechanical hum of the trains crossing the Firth of Forth, combined with the coastal wind, creates an atmosphere that you just can't get from a standard photograph.

If you’re watching the video on my page, please keep the sound ON. I’ve designed this to be an immersive experience that puts you right there in the air, soaring alongside the tracks that have linked Edinburgh to Fife for over a century.

Why Drone Cinematography Matters in 2026

As a drone pilot (A2 CofC certified), I see the world in layers. A bridge is never just a bridge. It’s a series of leading lines, geometric patterns, and historical context. Using a drone like the DJI Mini series allows me to capture these unique angles that were once impossible to reach, providing a perspective that grounds the viewer in the majesty of the location.

Whether I am filming a world-famous landmark or a local business, my goal is always the same: to provide incredible value through storytelling. High-quality aerial footage doesn’t just show where you are; it shows the grandeur of what you do.
