But while four years can be seen as a long time in some contexts, in the case of Orkney – captured beautifully by seasoned National Geographic photographer Jim Richardson on pages 10-17 – such a timescale is a mere grain of sand in the hourglass of history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs Jim explains, the distant past is still very much in evidence on the Orkney archipelago, and its islands now showcase a unique blend of tradition, modernity and prehistory. The concepts of ‘Auld and New’ also underpin another guest article in this issue – on pages 148-153 – in which interior designer and online personality Banjo Beale discusses his love of collecting beautiful things.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween these two absorbing features you’ll find pages packed with all manner of Scottish tales and topics, from whisky, folklore and regenerative farming to a focus on some of our most impressive botanic gardens. We also look at the reintroduction of wild beavers, take a deep-dive into the wonders of Fife and spotlight the remarkable Ploterre, a creative business inspired by nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElsewhere you’ll find a fantastic recipe for foraged kelp miso ramen from Café Canna in the Inner Hebrides, as well as an overview of Scotland’s Little Free Libraries and a tour of the remarkable Royal Deeside – you’ll even learn more about our own Hidden Scotland Shop, set in an old farmhouse on the Deeside Way. And as ever, there’s more to discover too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eDetails\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize: 160 pages, 200 x 255mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterial: Bound, printed in full colour on FSC-approved uncoated paper in Scotland\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExplore the other issues of Hidden Scotland \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lifestoryshop.mom\/collections\/hidden-scotland\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hidden Scotland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45637945655546,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0236\/1311\/files\/hiddenscotland-issue08-cover-Lifestory.webp?v=1712933425","url":"https:\/\/www.lifestoryshop.mom\/products\/hidden-scotland-magazine-issue-08","provider":"Lifestory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
