Scott Leggo takes a photographic journey around Australia in new book

Acclaimed Canberra-based landscape photographer Scott Leggo has just announced a beautiful coffee table book chronicling 15 years of his efforts capturing Australia will be released in time for Christmas.

The premium quality hardcover 224-page coffee table book, titled Australia โ€“ a photographic journey, will feature over 200 photos capturing the beauty, breadth and wonder of this big, wide land.

With six chapters showcasing Australiaโ€™s coast, outback, country, mountains and forests, snow, and waterways, Scott said his book will highlight Australiaโ€™s diversity of landscapes.

โ€œThereโ€™s such dramaticdiversity across the Australian landscape and I think a lot of people donโ€™t appreciate how much incredible beauty Australia has on offer,โ€ he said.

Scott has travelled right across Australia – from the highest mountains in the Australian Alps to the harsh, dry deserts of Central Australia – to form his unique collection of landscape photographs.

According to Scott, Australia will be โ€˜a must-haveโ€™ for the coffee table of โ€œanyone who has travelled across this country and for those who dream of the opportunity to experience more of its diverse landscapeโ€.

Curating the book has been a rewarding process for Scott that has involved sifting through 15 yearsโ€™ worth of photographs to create a book that at once flows well and gives an overview of Australiaโ€™s landscapes.

โ€œPeople having been asking us for a coffee table book for a while, but Iโ€™ve always been conscious of having enough photos to essentially cover enough of Australia so that you can do it justice,โ€ Scott said.

โ€œIn any book, you canโ€™t cover the entirety of Australia, you canโ€™t cover every geographic area and landscape, but what Iโ€™ve tried to do is have a sample.โ€

Scheduled for release in November, Australia is now available for pre-sale at a discounted price of $65.

Books ordered for pre-sale will arrive in November 2021, in time for Christmas, and be personally signed by Scott.

โ€œItโ€™ll be perfect for those in Canberra seeking a beautiful gift, for diplomats who have been in Australia and want to take something home, through to people who want to share Australia with others,โ€ he said.
