For more than five decades,  Scottish photographer Andrew C Taylor has forged his own path with independence and endless curiosity about the world around him. He is best known for his quirky natural history photography of birds, fish, insects, mammals and reptiles, from sunbathing pheasants to cow dung flies on a washing line, but he also casts his eye upon the human world, seeking out moments of intimacy, transience and theatricality. 

His wonderful illuminated, underwear-clad shop dummy and Texel sheep could be iconic. 

This unassuming work features Andrew C Taylor's quintessential pictures, which present coastlines and countryside populated by fishing boats, coal mines, nuclear power stations and more - where the industrial world and the natural world compete for attention - as 'landscapes of life' 

Beyond Andrew C Taylor's pictures, the book includes the author's insights into the story behind the image and the equipment and settings used to capture the moment.
