A stunning collection of photographs of the islands around Scotland’s West Coast from the Firth of Clyde to the Outer Hebrides.
From Skye to Seil, Jura to Gigha, the islands off the West Coast of Scotland offer some of the most stunning scenery in Europe. Many have been drawn to live in these islands since Scotland was first populated and many more come to visit these remarkable places. The islands boast a huge diversity of landscapes, from the Firth of Clyde and its two largest islands, Arran and Bute, both geologically divided by the Highland Boundary Fault, as well as numerous smaller islands including Holy Isle, to the Hebrides further north and west. The Hebridean archipelago stretches from the Inner Hebrides which contain over 70 inhabited and uninhabited islands, the largest of which are Islay, Jura, Rum, Mull and Skye, to the more distant Outer Hebrides or Western Isles, chiefly Lewis and Harris, North Uist, Benbecula, South Uist and Barra.
In Scottish West Coast Islands in Photographs, photographer and writer Alastair Jackson, originally hailing from the Isle of Skye, has been island hopping the islands for a number of years now, documenting them in all weathers and seasons. This book takes a journey through the seasons, highlighting the unique light and colours of the Hebridean and Clyde Islands. Look through these photographs and you will quickly see the unique appeal of these special places in the West of Scotland.
