From the Land Comes the Cloth, a photo essay on Harris Tweed making and the people of the Outer Hebrides by Ian Lawson. No other word; tweedporn. On sale as of today; £125.
Yes, the glorious (have to use that word) shots of fibers and cloth and tweed suck you in but also stunning (and not too picture postcardy) island life type shots. There is a short diary entry or photo essay on many of the facing pages too. Not always a fan of that but helps demystify what is happening. Gorge on the below and peek at 100 pages here.
Will be travelling to the far West coast of Scotland this summer, and would love to get to these Western Isles...
