Scottish West Coast Isles in Photographs

A stunning collection of photographs of the islands around Scotland’s West Coast from the Firth of Clyde to the Outer Hebrides. ''Incredible Scottish islands photo diary from writer who camped for 18 months.'' ''The author is originally an islander himself and his love for his subject matter comes off every page. The photographs themselves are wonderfully atmospheric. As we said at the beginning of this review: "Wow! Buy it."'' ''This is a delightful photo album taking the reader on an island-hopping journey documenting the islands of the Firth of Clyde and through the Inner and Outer Hebrides. It highlights the unique light and colours in all weathers and season with stunning photography.'' From Skye to Seil, Jura to Gigha, the islands off the west coast of Scotland offer some of the most stunning scenery in Europe. Many have been drawn to live on these islands since Scotland was first populated and many more come to visit these remarkable places. The islands boast a huge diversity of landscapes, from the Firth of Clyde and its two largest islands, Arran and Bute, both geologically divided by the Highland Boundary Fault, as well as numerous smaller islands including Holy Isle, to the Hebrides further north and west. The Hebridean archipelago stretches from the Inner Hebrides, which contain over seventy inhabited and uninhabited islands, the largest of which are Islay, Jura, Rum, Mull and Skye, to the more distant Outer Hebrides or Western Isles, chiefly Lewis and Harris, North Uist, Benbecula, South Uist and Barra. In Scottish West Coast Isles in Photographs, photographer and writer Alastair MacDonald Jackson, originally hailing from the Isle of Skye, has been island hopping for a number of years now, documenting them in all weathers and seasons. This book takes a journey through the seasons, highlighting the unique light and colours of the Hebridean and Clyde islands. Look through these photographs and you will quickly see the unique appeal of these special places in the west of Scotland.
