THE often-unseen aspects of trees are depicted in a month-long photographic exhibition at an Inverness gallery.

Award-winning Nairn photographer Morton Gillespie says it can often be difficult to see the wood for the trees because of a lack of imagination.

In his exhibition, The Magical World of Trees, at the Upstairs Gallery in Academy Street, he explores aspects which are unseen by a passerby.

“The variation of the beauty of trees never ceases to amaze me,” he said.

“I love to follow the seasons in a woodland covering, the graphic bare outline of winter, the lush greens of summer and the explosion of rustic golds in the autumn.”

It is showing as part of Flow Photofest Fringe, the biennial international photography festival held across the region.

Mr Gillespie grew up in Glasgow where his early photographic work was a documentary style.

His exhibition in the offices of HRI Munro Architecture can be seen until next Friday.
