More About This Title Otters

English

For more than two decades, award-winning photographer Laurie Campbell has documented the lithe and elusive otters on the River Tweed and its tributaries near his Berwickshire home. The resulting photographs create an intimate portrait of the lives of the otters through the changing seasons, including their riverside habitat and the other wildlife that shares it. Writer Anna Levin sets this work in the context of Laurie’s own life as she accompanies him to the riverbank. Her notebooks offer a vivid glimpse of the photographer at work and of the otters that enchant them both. This beautiful book is lavishly illustrated throughout, divided into seasonal chapters and charts Laurie’s personal quest to capture these endearing creatures in their natural habitat. It also offers an insight into Laurie’s philosophy: to look closer to home, rather than further away, to connect with the natural environment.
