THE GIFT OF
GETTING OUT

Captured by @HAMISHMORRISON

“My time spend outdoors is fuelled by the landscape in which I live. My doorstep is built on some of the most incredible landscapes in the UK, leaving me no choice but to explore. The feeling of isolation I get from a Scottish winter hike is like nothing else. The cold air seems to take away all the unwanted noise of everyday life, and brings everything back into perspective. This is why I strive to document the environment that surrounds me, conveying the rawness of the Highlands is what keeps me coming back.”

“Spending time outdoors was a huge part of my childhood. My mum often recites stories of when I was little, asking her to have my breakfast, lunch and dinners up the tree opposite our house. Now I live in a city, and the outdoors offers a place for adventure where I can seek out wide-open spaces to clear my mind. The perspective and the disconnect in these wild places helps me to realign my goals and set aside any worries that quickly become inconsequential when faced with a snow-covered mountain. In a time of ever increasing screen time, spending more time outdoors with your friends beyond the ranges of a phone signal gives us all a chance to reconnect with the people and places we truly care about.”

“The feeling of waking up in a tent to cold, fresh air is a feeling like no other. It’s a chance to escape the realities and stresses of day-to-day life. Every worry is left behind, everything is made simple. The only thing that is left is the calmness of a still morning with nothing but a misty scene in front of you. This is what inspires me to get outside in winter – to live these kinds of experiences and feel complete serenity. It reminds me of who I am and what is most important to me, and it is this feeling that keeps me coming back for more.”
