Depends on what you want to photograph.
Landscapes,architecture,wildlife, people or landmarks.

the fantasy bar or spirit rhino's

Bonnie Scotland!

It is a constantly changing kaleidoscope of light which has fascinated photographers and painters for hundreds of years.

Save yourself a lot of hassle and just fly straight in and out of Edinburgh if you only have 4 days.

PS The Lake district is very photogenic too, just like a small version of Scotland ( only civilised)

Get up North to the Low Furness district for fantastic views of the English Lakes. This time of the year the visibility is crystal clear and the sights of the snowy hills and mountains is breathtaking.
Get some long distance and panorama shots. To see what I mean have a look at ;

If you could it would have to be Shetland, but too expensive to get to and too far to go. So it has to be Glasgow for the architecture and it's people for their vibe and vroom. Capture this on camera. And of course you will not be far from Charles Rennie Macintosh's home Hill Head in Helensburgh. And the Burrell collection is worth a visit truly amazing collection. And oldest paddle steamer the Waverley still in commision on the river Clyde.

All of the above mentioned are a photographers dream come true.

If you want pretty little villages and cottages then Devon is lovely. London has a lot of photographic opportunities. Liverpool also. The lake district is beautiful too, depends what you want to take photos of.

I agree with the answers that recommend the Scottish Highlands and islands,particularly the one about the wonderful light which is great for photography,but be aware that most of the calendar quality photos you see from these places are taken by photographers who are there and have the time to watch a scene until the light is perfect.You may get lucky,but in Scotland,especially on a short trip like you're planning,there's always the chance that you'll see nothing but mist or rain,no matter what time of year you go.Good luck all the same.

The Northumberland coast, Highlands of Scotland, Pembroke coast and there is quite a few industrial areas all depending on what you wish to photograph. My favourite has to be Northumberland take a look http://www.colindixonphotography.com/Northumberland%20Coast%20near%20bamburgh.html.

Try Ironbridge in Shropshire,. you have the actual Ironbridge, then there is Buildwas Abbey' ruins. The Severn Valley Gorge. Then if you go to Welington (which is about 4 miles away) you can climb a small mountain called the Wrekin, its Just over 1400 feet making it a mountain and when you are at the top you can see 7 Kingdoms on a clear day which are: Wales, The Isle of Man, England, Ireland, Scotland, and then Heaven & Earth! Also when you are at the top of the Wrekin, you see aeroplanes that fly past at a lower level than what you are standing.

For general sight seeing and historical buildings you cant beat London. For beautifull scenery, the lake district, peaks and pennines. For dramatic coastlines the west coast. Everywhere in the UK has interesting things but those mentioned above have them in abundance.
