Marc Pickering - Heightened Senses

Marc Pickering is a landscape photographer based in Argyll, Scotland. He is the winner of the Landscape Category of the 2021 Scottish Landscape Photographer of the Year for his image, First Light, Loch Ederline. Marc is uniquely in-tune with the Scottish landscape. He spends all day outdoors through his day job, working for Forestry and Land Scotland, helping to manage Scotland’s woodlands. I was curious as to how this influences his landscape photography and we also talk about his experiences in Lofoten in Norway as well as his commissioned work for clients including Maserati and Amazon. Marc is one of my favourite Scottish landscape photographers and here, you’ll meet a humble, dow-to-earth guy who’s as good a landscape photographer as you’ll find anywhere. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Marc Pickering.Show NotesThank you to our sponsor, MPB.
