John Muir Trust-People
In photographing wild landscapes, I don't want to overlook the fact that people have been living and working there for centuries and beyond.
These photographs will show the relationship of people to the wild environments in which they live, work and play.

Issie Inglis, at Lochan Uaine in the Cairngorms. Issie is Director of Wildwalks which offers a series of lomg term walking projects for young women. The project, which is based at Glenmore Lodge, National Mountaineering Centre, is targeted at vulnerable young women from disadvantaged communities, whose inactivity may lead to health problems in later life.
The John Muir Award is part of the project: "We see the Award as an incredibly important part, not just as an educational tool, but part of the social and cultural learning process. At first many of the women see nothing but their feet and each other. It is important to help them open their eyes and see where they live, to think about the environment they live in and to help them find ways of changing."
