Scotland's Mountains. A Landscape Photographer's View. From the soaring peaks of the Southern Highlands in the south to the fortress-like Torridonian and Assynt hills in the far north; from the Cuillin of Skye, almost Alpine in character, in the west, to the lofty Cairngorms, with their windswept plateaus and jewel-like ice formations, to the east. With a brilliant eye for a picture and a masterly use of light, Joe depicts not only the peaks and ridges, the cliffs and buttresses of each mountain range, but the corresponding valleys and glens, and the deep lochs, fast-flowing burns and spectacular waterfalls that are as integral to the landscape as the mountains themselves. Accompanying the portfolios of images are Joe's fascinating accounts of his experiences in each region. He describes the physical and creative challenges he faced in order to capture the images and his reflections on the remarkable landscapes and features he encountered. The result is one of the most acutely observed, engaging and inspirational portraits of Scotland's mountains ever published. Scotland's Mountains: A Landscape Photographer's View.
