Filmmaker Walid Salhab captures stunning time lapse of rare Scottish summer An award-winning filmmaker has released a time lapse film of the Scottish summer. Walid Salhab has already made stop motion videos of the east of the country, with his last film of Edinburgh getting over three million hits on YouTube. The latest video features Ravensheugh Beach in East Lothian, the waterfall at Cramond, the harbour at Dunbar and Aberlady Nature Reserve. It took Mr Salhab three months to complete and was mainly shot during the days and nights of May, June and July. His films use a combination of time lapse and movement of the camera to create the illusion of motion. One sunset scene used around 600 individual images to make up the clip. The Queen Margaret University lecturer says the film is a celebration of the beautiful Scottish summer which was experienced this year. He said: "I am lucky enough to live in such a beautiful part of Scotland, and I really wanted to capture some of the amazing evenings and sunsets which we enjoyed this summer. Part of the filming process took me to unspoiled locations, some of which I experienced for the first time. My favourite has to be Ravensheugh Beach near Tyinghame and also the viewing point at Gullane, East Lothian where I was able to capture a glimpse of Muirfield in the lead up to the golf Open Champions. The great thing about this summer was the opportunity to see such incredible sunsets at our beaches. You can visit the beach ever night and have a different visual experience - the sunsets were totally different every time.
