A rock cliff solid in the left hand of the frame is home to hundreds of seabirds, beneath the firmness of the rock swils white spume of a quick dark sea.

Angle of vision

A sea misted view of the Hoy hills, a low light picks up the rock shelf on the shore under a slate sky coloured with blue, the dark waves are capped with white, a storm brews.

High and low, mild and furious

St Magnus Kirk on Egilsay photographed from the sky, a long shadow of the turret cuts across the kite shape creaed by the stone wall.

Look a little longer

The artists Gennady Rozhdestvensky, Russian composer, and Viktoria Postnikova, Russian pianist, in dark raincoats, his back facing the camera and his head turned as he links arms with Viktoria who smiles eyes closed facing the camera hands in pockets.

They all come to me!

Writers Duncan McLean and Irvine Welsh arms round shoulders smiling at the camera
