For the past five years photographer Robbie Lawrence has traveled across the US and Scotland, capturing the Scottish Highland Games and exploring its cultural significance to the Scottish people – and, in turn, himself. The resulting body of work is a love letter to Scottish culture and has been showcased in one of the most beautiful photography books of the year so far.
A photographer of Scottish heritage, Lawrence's new book Long Walk Home is a visual exploration of Scottish nationalism and identity captured through the vehicle of the Highland Games – a Scottish sporting event that is just as much about the community and the celebration as the events themselves.
