I was having a surf on You Tube and came across this video of the Mountains of Scotland. Produced by bigwallypants It's set to a Gaelic song by Runrig - An ubhal as airde (The Highest Apple). If like me you're stuck at home wishing you could get away to the hills, have a look - it'll help take you there, at least for a few minutes. Its also good fun trying to work out what the mountains are.

Good find.
Good use of pan/tilt. I thought the clips were from the tv series: "Mountains of Scotland". But they are stills set to pan/tilt. The better ones really do look like the helo-shots from the tv. They done good.
