An all new portfolio of awe-inspiring Highland photography from Scotland's finest photographer.
Colin Prior's work is about landscape photography at it's limits. Shooting at the magic hours of dusk and dawn, he catches those rare moments when composition, fine light and colour combine to create a memorable image. Each photograph captures fleeting moments of nature which will never repeat themselves exactly.
The images verge on obsession - Colin camped out on the remotest peaks in Scotland to obtain them.
The portfolio combines breath-taking new examples of Colin's trademark panoramas - which continue to appeal to the tourist and travel markets - with a range of new medium format images that push the boundaries of digital photography.
