About the Author
Keith Fergus is a passionate walker, writer and photographer. His writing on the outdoors, Scottish history and the Scottish language – combined with his striking imagery – has been published in a variety of national magazines, newspapers, calendars and brochures. He also has three photographic books to his name.
Keith has walked all over Scotland, with the mountains and coast particular favourites. Growing up in Glasgow the Ayrshire coast was the most natural (and nearest) place to visit and the best place to enjoy his passions of walking and photography; it still ranks high among his favourite destinations. Over 30 years of visiting and exploring means he has an intimate knowledge of the region, its incredible history, diverse wildlife and breathtaking scenery.
Passionate about the outdoors and the crucial role it plays – particularly in modern life – Keith is never happier than when wandering along a mountain ridge or across a secluded beach. He also runs his own photographic business and photo library, which, under the banner of Scottish Horizons www.scottishhorizons.co.uk, produces a range of postcards, greetings cards and calendars. He lives with his wife and two children on the outskirts of Glasgow and is a member of the Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild.
