The annual John Muir Trust desk diary and a calendar are always worth looking forward to as both are packed with beautiful images of landscapes, nature, and wildlife by some brilliant photographers. Both items are edited, as they have been for many years, by nature, wildlife and adventure photographer John Beatty, who supplies some of the photographs.
The Wild Nature Diary has a beautiful and atmospheric cover photograph of early morning mists near Skelwith Bridge in Langdale in the Lake District by Mike Prince. There's a foreword by Scottish singer-songwriter and musician Karine Polwart, a preface by John Beatty, and a message from Jane Smallwood, Chair of the JMT, a Year Planner, introductory photos (including a superb image of Slioch in the NW Highlands by Lizzie Shepherd), and a page and photo per week.
The Wild Nature Calendar has a picture per month.
Either or both of these would make wonderful gifts for anyone who loves wild places and nature or you could buy them for your own office or study. Purchasing them helps the Trust too as all profits goes towards its work.
The Wild Nature Diary costs £16.50, the Wild Nature
Calendar £13. They're available here.
