Scotland has some fabulous scenery, the best often associated with the Highlands and Islands. But less than 25 miles east of Edinburgh, on the Firth of Forth, the East Lothian town of North Berwick has its own magic and charm. It's so accessible by railway and road and is a gem of a place to live, to holiday in and to visit. This new collection of landscape and seascape photographs includes an amazing variety of coastline, countryside, beaches and islands from bays to the west and east of North Berwick harbour to, east of the town, Tantallon Castle, the Bass Rock, Seacliff and eight miles off the East Lothian coast, the Isle of May. At North Berwick Harbour visitors enjoy locally-caught lobster, can take a boat around Fidra, Craigleith and the Bass and make landing trips to the Bass Rock and May Island. This book includes photographs of spectacular sunsets and sunrises, panoramas from the top of the Law, snow scenes and Christmas lights in the High Street. There's a special 'up close' selection of pictures of gannets on the Bass Rock, which is also expanded upon in Ian Goodall's "Glorious Gannets" book, published separately. The Bass Rock is an iconic island, the plug of an extinct volcano, and it's home to the world's largest single-island gannet colony of over 150,000 birds. There's a selection of pictures from the Isle of May, its lighthouses and birds including puffins, arctic terns and kittiwakes. From the Law behind North Berwick, 613ft high with a whale's jawbone at the top, there are spectacular views across to Fife and up the Forth Estuary towards Edinburgh and beyond to the three bridges including the new Queeensferry crossing. In this part of East Lothian the weather, the light, land and sea magically combine to provide a photographer's dream, reflected in the author's choice of many stunning and previously unseen photographs.

To the east of Scotland's capital city, Edinburgh, the adjacent county of East Lothian offers an impressive variety of coastline, countryside, beaches and islands. In the Firth of Forth, off the coast of the North Neuk, the islands of Fidra, Lamb, Craigleith and the Bass Rock are easily reached on boat trips out of North Berwick. Boat trips to the Isle of May and Anstruther have recently been added, the latter reviving the old pilgrims' crossing to Earlsferry in Fife. The most spectacular of these islands is the Bass Rock, rising majestically out of the sea with near-vertical sides apart from the south side where the landing jetties, lighthouse, old castle walls and chapel ruins are located. The Bass, which gave its name to the northern gannet (Sula bassana or Morus bassanus), is home to the world's largest colony of northern gannets with more than 150,000 birds. A boat trip round the Bass Rock is a memorable experience. Landing on the Bass and observing the glorious gannets up close is awesome and a photographer's dream, now shared in this book of amazing photographs.
