"The Outer Hebrides" is Malcolm MacGregor's second book of landscape photography in Scotland. Here, he has travelled throughout the islands in pursuit of Atlantic light. The photographic journey on the edge of Scotland has taken him from the majestic beaches of North Lewis, via the mountainous tops of Harris to the awe-inspiring cliffs on Mingulay in the south. The photographs in this book cover remote mountains, hills, coastline and deserted islands. Additionally, he has photographed churches, ruined castles, ancient graveyards, fishing vessels, Harris tweed factories and standing stones, bringing a different perspective to the Outer Hebrides. Conscious of the history of the Hebrideans and how their lives have interacted over the years with this extraordinary landscape, the accompanying text weaves the landscape into the life, the history and some of the legends that continue today. It also covers some of the lesser-known aspects and viewpoints of the islands and why they are so special and why perhaps we should 'behold the Hebrides' as a unique destination within the British Isles. The varied moods of a Scottish wilderness is captured on film. It features an evocative portrait of a increasingly popular tourist destination. It contains historical anecdotes and local legends.
