A pioneering long-term photographic project has revealed the scale of nature restoration now taking place in some of the Scottish Highlands' most iconic nature reserves.
Using historical photographs, which in some cases date back 70 years, NatureScot, the Scottish Government's environment agency, has reshot the same photos at the same location and at the same time of year at six of its 43 National Nature Reserves.
The result is a unique time-lapse record of how critically endangered habitats including pine and birch forests, together with peat bogs - are now recovering thanks to the efforts of conservation managers.
