Winner of the Scottish Wildlife Portrait Category 2023
The wild landscapes of Britain are some of the most beautiful in the world. From the far North West Highlands and Islands of Scotland to the rugged sea cliffs of Cornwall are hidden corners of wildness, each with their own special creatures, plants and geology.
Yet these apparently unspoilt and natural landscapes are impacted everywhere by human occupation, overgrazing and blanket forestry. Positive action was called for in the face of this process of erosion and degradation and the John Muir Trust was formed in 1983, standing up for the wild land values pioneered by John Muir over a hundred years ago.
This Wild Nature Diaries & Calendar introduces those elements of land, nature, people and spirit that meant so much to him, and demonstrates that the natural world has a vital part to play in our lives through stewardship and preservation of ecosystems and natural resources.
The photographs within the pages of the Wild Nature Diary and the Wild Nature Calendar have been drawn from photographers, including myself, with direct experience of encounters from the natural world in which we live. Each image tells its own inspiring story and helps us to connect with nature every day.
You can enjoy the scenes, textures and atmospheres of wild places throughout the year in the pages of the Wild Nature Diary 2022 and Wild Nature Calendar 2022 available from https://wild-nature.co.uk/
