This is an image I had to shoot for a last-minute commission, and I had to take quite a gamble on the conditions. I'm fortunate enough to live quite close to Torridon, and I really value how intimately I have started to know the hills there.https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/running-hare.jpgRunning hareI regularly guide clients to photograph mountain hares, so I have many images of them. It is always tempting to fill the frame with wildlife photos, but I can really enjoy minimal, more challenging images. This is one of my favourite hare images from the last couple of years.https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/flood-cave.jpgFlood caveThis is quite probably the first high quality image seen from this cave, only discovered in 2017. I had no idea what this cave looked like before I visited it. The entrance 'squeeze' was so tight and awkward that even getting the camera gear in was a real challenge, and the entire cave was tight and claustrophobic. This cave is one of three recently discovered Scottish caves, which to my knowledge I am the first pro photographer to have documented. https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/monterey-humpback-.jpgMonterey - HumpbackThe one and only time I've been lucky enough to see a humpback whale 'breach', and I managed to photograph it. We were on a whale-watching boat in Monterey Bay, and had been watching two relaxed humpbacks for quite a while. Out of nowhere, with no warning, this individual leapt into the air. The whole thing lasted just over 1 second, and I barely even saw it happen. I caught a rapid movement out of my right eye, moved my camera and just started shooting. I couldn't quite believe it when I found I had captured it. I can't tell you how happy this image makes me.https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/an-teallach.jpgAn TeallachAn Teallach at the end of October. This is possibly my personal favourite mountain landscape image from 2019. I have visited this location numerous times but never quite got the conditions I wanted, until this particular day. I had to wake up at 1am at home in order to drive to Dundonnell, and make the summit for dawn. Even with such an early start however, it was still an effort to get there in time. The snow was deep and very hard going above 800m, and I really had to push hard to make it in time. Once I had got there, the dawn was truly special, and worth every minute of effort. This image made the opening double page spread of the current issue of The Great Outdoors Magazine.2019-12-24T14:56:28+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2019/11/02/down-the-rabbit-hole-a-new-film-and-exhibition/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/solo-exhibition-1.jpgSolo exhibitionhttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/downtherabbitholeposter.jpgDown the Rabbit Hole Filmhttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/petzl-signature_black-v2.pngPetzl signature_black -v2https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/down-the-rabbit-hole-4.jpgDown the Rabbit Hole 4https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/down-the-rabbit-hole-2.jpgDown the Rabbit Hole 22019-11-02T11:05:39+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2019/08/22/another-summer-of-pine-martens/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/dsc_4399crop.jpgPine marten in flowering heather2019-08-22T12:08:23+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2019/03/19/a-great-winter-of-photography-workshops/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_9762-copy.jpghttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_9482-copy1.jpghttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_8654copy1.jpghttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_8367-copy1.jpghttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_7276-copyfinal.jpgCamouflaged ptarmiganhttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_7052-copy.jpghttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_6244-copy.jpghttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_5777-copymid.jpgMountain hares on the movehttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_5049_9final.jpgWide-angle mountain harehttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/dsc_4915-copy.jpg2019-06-24T14:14:34+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/galleries/2019-06-24T14:06:22+00:00weekly0.6https://jamesroddie.com/scottish-woodlands/2019-06-24T10:12:23+00:00weekly0.6https://jamesroddie.com/caves-of-scotland-and-england/2019-06-06T10:56:36+00:00weekly0.6https://jamesroddie.com/buy-prints/2019-06-03T09:42:42+00:00weekly0.6https://jamesroddie.com/2019/05/29/new-photography-workshops-for-2019-20/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/hare-in-snow.jpgHare in snow2019-05-31T12:23:31+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2018/12/11/a-win-in-the-british-wildlife-photography-awards/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/screen-shot-2018-12-10-at-11-06-51.pngOpening shot of Outdoor Photography Magazine Nov 2018https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/48235371_366423280587156_7602314262513451008_n.jpgOpening Shot of TGO Magazine Nov 2018https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/dsc_0358-copy.jpgCategory Winner in BWPA 2018https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/45660954_346869816118849_2563186617682493440_n.jpgAt the British Wildlife Photography Awards 2018https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/seasonal-overlap.jpgSeasonal Overlap'Seasonal Overlap' - Wild Woods category winner in the British Wildlife Photography Awards 20182018-12-17T09:51:12+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2018/10/16/landscape-photographer-of-the-year-2018/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/roddiej02.jpg2018-10-16T17:15:38+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2017/11/13/british-wildlife-photography-awards-2017/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/wave-breaklow-res.jpgWave Breakhttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/4813copy61.jpghttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/4813copy6_1.jpg4813copy6_12018-02-15T09:51:12+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2015/02/27/7/2018-02-15T09:38:14+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2017/04/11/a-win-in-scottish-landscape-photographer-of-the-year/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/dsc_6322.jpgScottish Landscape Photographer of the Year bookhttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/dsc_6318.jpgScottish Landscape Photographer of the Year bookhttps://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/dsc_5683copy1.jpg'Stand'2017-04-11T21:55:39+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.com/2016/09/08/the-british-wildlife-photography-awards-2016/https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/at-rest-in-the-heather.jpgShort-listed - British Wildlife Photography Awards 2016https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/mid-winter-cairngorms.jpg'Highly Commended' - British Wildlife Photography Awards 2016https://jamesroddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/bwpa-awards.jpgBritish Wildlife Photography Awards 20162016-09-08T20:58:59+00:00monthlyhttps://jamesroddie.comdaily1.02026-02-11T13:15:28+00:00
