Wild Light

Craig Aitchison is an award-winning photographer specialising in panoramic images of the Scottish Highlands. Craig has spent twenty-five years walking and exploring in the beauty of Scotland’s mountains, glens and lochs. Combining a passion for the wild with an affinity for traditional film photography, Wild Light is Craig’s second book, following the acclaimed The Highlands: Land & Light (Frances Lincoln, 2012). The inaugural winner of the Scottish Landscape Photographer of the Year, Craig strives to capture images of the wild land and light from some of the remotest regions of his home country. He lives in Glasgow with his young family.

'If the evidence of Craig Aitchison's work in this magnificent book is anything to go by, it's a process that slows you down and allows you to appreciate the landscape to the full: and in the hands of a master it's a process that allows you to capture the Scottish mountain landscape in a way that evokes joy, longing and wonder. Buy this book.'
– Ken Lussy, Undiscovered Scotland 

'It must be a huge gamble by Vertebrate to publish this book, and knowing a little of how much it must have cost to put together, I do hope it is successful for it really does justice to the finest mountain scenery we have in the UK.'
– Dennis Grey, Footless Crow
