· His background · Edinburgh born Lindsay Robertson has been a professional photographer since 1971. Having perfected his skills in commercial photography he adapted his art to concentrate on capturing the landscape which has always been his inspiration. In recognition of his work whilst resident at the prestigious Hermitage Artists Retreat in Florida during 2005, Lindsay was given the opportunity to bring the Eastman House archive of Ansel Adams photographs to Scotland. To spearhead his own current photographic project of photographing in the footsteps of the Scots born environmentalist and father of the American National Park movement, John Muir. · His work · Lindsay has always had a passion to photograph the ever changing Scottish landscape. He believes that by creating monochromatic images of mountain, sea and sky, our emotional response and appreciation of the world around us can become all the more intense and meaningful. As a photographer who journeys in the pursuit of inspirational locations, he is often reminded of Chief Seattle's wise words when he said, " take only memories, leave nothing but footprints..." He uses traditional skills, hand made silver rich prints combined with modern laser technology to create stunning landscapes and is the first British Photographer to be awarded the privilege of exhibiting with Ansel Adams. |
