Located on the west coast of South Harris in the Outer Hebrides, this is a vast beach, with white sand and pristine dunes. \u201cOn this particular morning,\u201d recalls photographer Ross Hoddinott, \u201cthe sky was colourful and the ripples in the sand provided foreground interest and texture. A long exposure softened the movement of the swaying marram grass and incoming tide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"sans-serif article-subhead\"><strong>LOCKED IN CONFLICT<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<figure class=\"no-tts wp-block-image alignwide size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/naturepl_01708019_preview-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"no-tts wp-image-30679\" srcset=\"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/naturepl_01708019_preview-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/naturepl_01708019_preview-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/naturepl_01708019_preview-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/naturepl_01708019_preview-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/naturepl_01708019_preview-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"article-full-body sans-serif\">Capturing wildlife on camera is a rather different beast to landscape photography, as the action of the animal world can move at break-neck pace. Here, two red deer stags go head to head during the deer rut, as they vie for territory and status. The clash of antlers and anatomy is ferocious, and one wouldn\u2019t want to get caught in their midst. By waiting patiently and keeping their presence undetected, wildlife photographers are able to document extraordinary moments in the wild world, although it can be a risky business.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"sans-serif article-subhead\"><strong>LAST FARM STANDING<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<figure class=\"no-tts wp-block-image alignwide size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/Farm-life-HR_1_preview-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"no-tts wp-image-30680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/Farm-life-HR_1_preview-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/Farm-life-HR_1_preview-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/Farm-life-HR_1_preview-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/Farm-life-HR_1_preview-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2023\/09\/Farm-life-HR_1_preview-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"article-full-body sans-serif\">Nestled in Naddle Valley, south of Keswick, Causeway Foot is a classic traditional Lakeland farm, with a small acreage, enough stock to keep a family supported, cobbled yards, slit windows, panelled stalls in the cowhouse \u2013 and toast on the Rayburn. But it is also the last of its kind: sole survivor in a valley once known for dairy. \u201cI love developing storytelling into my images,\u201d says photographer Amy Bateman, who captured this image at 5am for her book <em>Forty Farms. <\/em>\u201cHere the cow may be questioning what is around the corner at Causeway Foot.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"footer\">Photos: Ross Hoddinott,
