Two new books have just arrived in our warehouse - hot off the press from Allan Wright Photography. Here at Scottish Bookstore we are a huge fan of Allan's work, not least the thousands of images featured in the Lyrical Scotland postcard and greetings card ranges we stock.
But Allan's latest projects see him return to book form which truly showcases his artistic eye. Allan's appreciation for Scotland's varied scenery is amply evident in these new publications, the first of which celebrates our outermost isles.
'Scotland's Islands' truly captures the best of Allan's work. It's easy to see why he cherishes and continues to thrive on what he calls "the encounter and challenge involved in zeroing in on the moment". Readers of this book will too.
Scotland's Islands, Allan Wright
Allan is no stranger to Scotland's dramatic seaboard having spent many years as a lens-man, passionate in his quest to discover his own country - onshore and off. Consequently 'Scotland's Islands' features over 160 pages of spellbinding photography, further enhanced by the elegant writing of leading Herald and Guardian journalist and columnist Marianne Taylor. Marianne shares her own intimate experience of exploring many of Allan's featured islands adding a refreshing dimension to this beautiful book - truly a document of out time.
Here are just a few of the photographs in this new collection:
