Scotland’s Still Light explores the relationship between photographic imagery and the words of some of Scotland’s most highly-respected writers. It is not an attempt to illustrate the texts but to give a sense of place through the combination of words and images. Sometimes it is a whole piece, sometimes a paragraph or verse, a few lines or occasionally a single line that encapsulates the experience of trying to capture ‘the moment’ with a camera. All of the photographic images have evolved from a study of the unique quality of light that prevails in the exquisite diversity of Scotland’s landscapes and cities.
