I was thrilled to find this image was awarded Runner Up in the Landscape Category of the Scottish Landscape Photographer of the Year 2024 competition. #SLPOTY  'Sunset from Port Appin' (north of Oban) looking across to the mountains on the Morvern peninsula.  I just loved how the silhouettes of the four trees on the left balanced with the break in the clouds on the right, allowing the late evening sun to create such wonderful light.  This has been such a successful image for me

Outdoor Photography Magazine No 303 (March)Outdoor Photography Magazine No 303 (March) Very pleased to learn that another of my photographs has been published in 'Outdoor Photography' magazine in the 'One Thing This Month - Patterns in Nature' section.  This was an image of the amazing rock formations on the island of Staffa, part of the Inner Hebrides, and created many millions of years ago as a result of volcanic activity.  Lots of hexagonal basalt columns create wonderful patterns.  This is also the home of Fingal's Cave, where Mendelssohn was inspired to compose his Hebrides Overture owing to the wonderful acoustic qualities of the cave.
