Scottish Nature Photography Awards 2025

17th May 2025
'Scottish Nature Photography Awards'
I am delighted to have two images shortlisted in this prestigious competition, and these will appear in their portfolio yearbook.
'Sgurr a Greadaidh' was in the Landscape category

After a freezing night in a bivi on the summit in the Cuillins, my reward was a beautiful sunrise. The soft dawn light was emparting a wonderfull glow, and I used its ridge lines to feed the eye through to the Trotternish ridge in the distance.

'Winter Ptarmigan' was in the Wildlife Portrait category.

I chanced upon this beautiful Ptarmigan in its pristine winter plumage while I was climbing to Cairn Gorm in the Cairngorms. I used a telephoto lens to isolate it in the pristine snow which was sparkling in the sunlight.
Many congratulations to all of the winners and other shortlisted entries.
