North Uist is one of a group of islands known as the Outer Hebrides, or Wester Isles. They are part of Scotland and sit off the north west coast west of Skye. Uist has a unique aura and has a culture drawn form gaelic small holders and farmers. Recently, Uist has a strong interest in the Creative Arts with a small community art college, and a programme of visiting artists.
The photos below were taken as part of a trip documenting this fabulous landscape that changes form the machir (fertile fields of wild plants, to the barren windswept golden dady beaches. More info can be found here.
