Ross Mackenzie is a wild places photographer based in Headington. Ross specialises in cold remote places. He has made numerous trips to the Arctic and to the South Atlantic and Antarctic, and spends as much time as he can exploring the wilder (northern) parts of the UK.
This is Ross’ third Artweeks exhibition, and this year he has chosen to present a series of panoramic images which give a sense of the openness of many of the remote places he has photographed both in Scotland and further afield.

Ross is a long time supporter of the John Muir Trust, of the Berks, Bucks & Oxon Wildlife Trust (BBOWT) and of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RPSB). This year he will be donating 10% of all Artweeks sales to the RSPB to help their work in protecting puffins which were recently added to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
