The View -  The Quiraing, Isle of Skye

This picture is inspired by a solo trip I made to Skye in December. It was a reconnection to nature and the solitude that I needed after a difficult year. Nature always allows me to reconnect with myself, and this view enabled me to just sit and do just that.

The Colours of Camusdarach

Whenever I want to escape the house, the beaches of the West Coast of Scotland call. This beach is one of my favourites, the colour of the water, the texture of the fine sand, the view to the islands all help me to reconnect with nature. Something I think many of us have found joy in, in these challenging times.

Fingals Cave, Staffa.

Fingals Cave is famous cave on the Island of Staffa. It is known for its amazing rocks formations. This picture is inspired by a trip there in August. The rocks are a reminder of how incredible the world can be, and how we can reconnect with ourselves through mother nature.
