Well, after the usual last-minute scrambles and one or two late nights, the summer issue of the magazine has now gone to press. We got the call from the printer today to say that copies are ready and will be on their way to stockists and subscribers early next week.

I’m actually down south until Monday and have not seen the finished product as yet, so will have to keep my powder dry for a few days yet. I can’t wait to see it though. We have made a few design tweaks that we think have smoothed out one or two rough edges and also enabled the pages to do better justice to some incredibly strong images. Look out for Bruce Percy’s wonderfully atmospheric cover image from Sandwood Bay, a shot of Gary Williamson literally ‘stepping’ on Ben Nevis from the (relative) safety of his paramotor, plus a bottlenose dolphin adult and calf caught breaching together in perfect harmony.

We hope you enjoy the issue – and do let us have any feedback (whether good, bad or otherwise!). And for those who have not yet seen the magazine, why not request a free trial issue to check us out? Just click on the subscriptions page for details.

Bye for now
Richard
