Along the western shore of Gruinard Bay is the tiny hamlet of Mellon Udrigle and its strange and spectacular beach of Camas a’Charaig. Here a broad expanse of white sand slopes gently into a turquoise sea, backed by dunes and framed by rocky promontories. The panoramic distant mountain vistas from this beach are possibly unequalled from any low level viewpoint in Scotland, and include Suilven, Stac Pollaidh and a glimpse of An Teallach.
Ian is a self-taught full time professional landscape photographer with over twenty three years of experience. Apart from his own very popular range of Transient Light Scottish landscape calendars and range of Fine Art cards. Ian published his first book of landscape photography – Transient Light – through GMC publications in association with the Guild of Master craftsmen, it’s popularity leading to a second edition of his work.
“Scotland is one of the finest locations in the world to pursue high quality landscape images, it’s light and weather creating unique opportunities even after repeat visits”. Although he has travelled extensively the majority of his work is confined to Scotland where he finds an endless source of pleasure and inspiration.
The hallmark of Ian’s work is his articulate composition, subtle processing and delicate handling of natural light to produce outstandingly natural images of scenes that would otherwise be passed by in favour of more dramatic topography.
