Shetland, perched at the northernmost edge of Britain, is a place where the raw power of nature meets a deep sense of stillness and solitude. This gallery is a tribute to the wild spirit of these remote isles – a landscape shaped by wind, sea, and sky, and home to some of the UK’s most iconic and elusive wildlife. Over multiple visits, I’ve explored Shetland’s dramatic cliffs, sweeping moorlands, and sheltered voes in search of its resident species – from seabirds clinging to sea stacks to otters weaving silently along the shoreline. These islands offer a richness and intensity of experience that few places can match. The ever-changing light, the clarity of the air, and the constant presence of the ocean create an environment that feels both ancient and alive.
This collection is about more than just wildlife; it’s about place. Through these photographs, I’ve tried to convey the mood, movement, and quiet magic of Shetland – a corner of Britain that feels worlds away.
