A little bit about me Steven Trolland

Billions of years have passed through the eyes of time and here we are.

We are an expression of life weaved within its beauty

Being brought up here all my life in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland in the wee village called Aviemore which is just six miles from the foot of the Cairngorm mountains.

Being surrounded by the natural beauty in the Cairngorm National Park of the lochs, beautiful clear running rivers, the hills and glens I couldn't live anywhere else!

Through many hard times in life, the purity of the surrounding landscapes and the night sky has always brought me a sense of healing and direction in my life.

The Cairngorms being a ski resort has always inspired me to follow my dreams, one being in Snowboard competing in my younger days that led me to many beautiful places in the world where I have gained to date now eight podiums at the British Championships where two were British titles and one podium was on skis.

One podium was not so long ago in 2024 and in my early 50s I just missed the overall podium by 0.10 of a second out of over 100 competitors.

When driving into the mountains again after being away, the sense of peace it always brings me like is like it makes my soul smile and always brings contentment and hippieness.

All these years Seeing and feeling all this beauty and appreciating it more and more every day whether it is under the silence of the dark skies with millions of stars and the Northern Lights or in the daylight my passion now is to try and capture it through the eyes of the lens
