Inspired by nature Do you have a cracking image of the wonderful wildlife and landscapes of Scotland or a great story or poem about a wild encounter? If the answer is ‘yes’, then we want to hear from you, as we plan to print some of the best entries in future issues of The Nature of Scotland. This is your chance to have one of your images, stories or poems published for all to see, so search out your best efforts and send them in. You can email your words or photos to editor@snh.gov.uk Remember to include your name, where you live and brief details of any pictures submitted. If you’re sending in photos that have children in them, then we need written permission from a parent or guardian of each child in the picture. By way of inspiration, here are a few images. The first (above) was the winner of last year’s Scottish Biodiversity Week photography competition, and came in from Gordon Rae of Lockerbie under the title ‘Between day and night’. The other two images, of a ptarmigan and a mountain hare in the Monadhliath mountains, were sent in by Colin Richards, who’s one of our readers in Bridgend, South Wales. www.snh.gov.uk 49
