Your third year of calendars Ross! Well done. I will be getting them. They look great 👍😊
Ross Davidson Photography@_rossdavidsonJun 28
Over the past 12 months I’ve dedicated countless hours to being in the mountains at the right for a few fleeting seconds of light. I’m delighted to share a few of those moments with you in my new 2027 Calendars. One for the Lakes and one for Scotland. Link in my bio!

It was an honour and a pleasure to be interviewed by Radio Wester Ross and it was great to share some of the impact of this week’s Earth Mind Geotour that I have loved working on with @NWHGeopark and #RuthAllen

We will continue to need huge amounts of oil and gas for years. It’s a delusion to believe otherwise! Why import it when we have our own geological reserves? We need to protect UK oil & gas industry and stop and reverse its decline. 🤔

“It adds over £100bn to the UK economy… we should prioritise homegrown production, our own jobs, and value in our economy. That means producing oil & gas from the North Sea responsibly, alongside world-class renewables.” – David Whitehouse on @BBCNews 🎥 Watch: #EnergySecurity #NetZero #NorthSea #OEU

Fish and chips is one of the UK's most iconic traditional meals and no trip to the seaside is complete without picking up a portion as coastal resorts dominate the list of most chippies per head
