Celebration of Scenes and Seasons in Braemar
Deeside performance, arts and heritage venue St Margaret’s Braemar has unveiled a specially curated exhibition, which runs from now until September, showcasing some of the area’s very best photographers.
Scene and Seasons shows the wonders of Braemar and the surrounding area, from the highest rugged peaks of the Cairngorms to the tranquil glens and enchanting nature to be found among them.
The display, which opened with a special preview viewing for Friends of St Margaret’s and the local community last weekend, spotlights six artists — Anke Addy, Léo Amory, Magali Brat, Martin Bennie, Gail Nixon and Shaila Rao — all of whom live and draw inspiration from the natural wonders to be found on their doorsteps.
The exhibition is free to visit, however donations towards the upkeep and future renovation of St Margaret’s are warmly welcomed.
Commenting, St Margaret’s trustee and exhibition coordinator Colin Wight said: “These are six very talented local photographers.
“They all live in or around Braemar and Upper Deeside and love the area, the environment and its wildlife.
“That really comes across in the photos on display and we have managed to captured the clear passion they all have for their subject matter in an accompanying video which can be viewed alongside the exhibition.
“The photos are simply stunning and will give locals and visitors alike a fresh perspective on this most beautiful part of Scotland.”
