Images from two Perthshire photographers made the finals of this year’s prestigious Scottish Portrait Awards. The work of all the shortlisted entries went on show recently at Duff House in Banff as part of an exhibition that runs until February 26.
The image submitted by Crieff agricultural student Rhona Campbell Crawford – titled ‘Farewell My Friend’ – is a particularly poignant one, for it features her late friend, Comrie’s Andrew Eadington, and her beloved horse Buddy.
Rhona (21), who was up against professional photographers and photography students, said she is not a professional and has only ever entered Young Farmers’ competitions in the past.In fact, the photo was taken on her phone.
She was prompted to enter after Andrew’s mum, Anna, shared the competition details online.Rhona said: “My main passion in life is my beloved horse, the general outdoors, working on the farm, working with sheep – I have my own flock of 13 sheep at the moment so a lot of my inspiration for my work is my every day life and capturing that as I’m going along, completely unposed and unplanned.“I just whip out the phone and take a picture that captures things that are unforced and are really naturally beautiful.“Apart from Buddy being a subject in my photo for the awards, the other subject is my best friend Andrew.“Andrew also shared a love of the outdoors.
