    About the Book

    Edit

    A kimono is a traditional form of clothing in Japan that is wrapped around the body.There is a custom that one must not know the mystery of what lies underneath.There was a taboo about looking...
    I am facinated by convensions and mythology.
    In Scotland, rivers cover the land and are dark places where one must not look as demons lie in wait if we venture too close.Like the kimono, grass and leaves creates a wrapping, mesmerising and beautiful. While admiring the beauty of the season:however as is said, “Plámás,”... (from the geál .'Cajolery or empty flattery'.) looking at beauty can be risky...So with the help of the
    Silkies( the fairy folk) I admire the river and make the images.

    Douglas McBride Photographer
    Scotland

    "This photographer is a hunter, a seeker after signs. Every day he surprises warriors and monsters and wee folk; and especially hints of his own past to which only he is party. It is work full of seductive images you can interpret as you will but which ultimately are the private property of their maker. Here is someone who may be indulging in 'phototherapy' but who is creating photographs which have a universal appeal as, dare we say, beautiful objects." Joe Mulholland.Glasgow.
