Artwork description:

Last Light on the Mountains is an image I made some time back when there was a lot of very deep snow near Stac Polaidh in the Scottish Highlands. It was an incredible day and the sun was just setting. Very cold (when you are knee deep in snow at minus 10C !) and very still so this long exposure only has movement in the clouds.

I love the contrast of the dark teal sky and the bright white clouds as the last rays of the sun hit them. The image was only there for a brief moment or two before the sun went behind the hills and was lost.

Printed on beautifully aquarelle fine art paper that has a watercolour paper texture and will not to fade for over a hundred years.

Printed at 36 x 36 inches including a 2 inches white border. The signature, title and edition number under the image. This image is the perfect proportions for a living room, dining room or hallway.

My work is all about the emotional connection we have to a place and the moment in our memory when we felt such intense pleasure looking at a landscape. I am driven to capture the essence of a place with my camera, working mainly with the colours and shapes I see when I half close my eyes. I travel to remote islands, to places steeped in history, unspoilt beaches and wild rocky coastlines where I love to work in quiet solitude.

Also available on canvas and in other sizes, please ask for more information.
