Colin Prior
Colin Prior is one of Britain's leading landscape photographers. His spectacular panoramic images capture the beauty and eternal quality of the world's wild places, especially those of his own native Scotland. He brings to his work a strong personal vision combined with supreme technical mastery of his chosen medium. Shooting at the 'magic hours' of dawn or dusk, he is able to catch those rare moments when composition, fine light and colour combine to create a remarkable image. Each photograph uniquely captures fleeting moments of nature that will never repeat themselves exactly.

Heason Events was launched in Spring 2003, inspired by the now-defunct Ape Index (a series of grass-roots rock climbing talks based in Sheffield), and the fast development of projection technology.
Heason Events was launched in Spring 2003, inspired by the now-defunct Ape Index (a series of grass-roots rock climbing talks based in Sheffield), and the fast development of projection technology.
The primary aim was to create slick, professional, multimedia presentations, using high tech digital gadgetry to bring an exciting, entertaining and inspiring atmosphere to audiences around the country. Feedback from events held during the winter of 2003 / 04 indicate that things were very well received.
Since those initial shows Heason Events has progressed to a stage where it is able to offer a wide variety of event management, including multimedia shows, film festivals, competitions, film screenings, event promotion, and parties.
If you are a climber or a business person (or both), and would like to organise a multimedia show, motivational or corporate lecture, you can browse the Heason Events Portfolio which lists a host of well-known climbers and mountaineers, many of whom specialise in addressing the business world.
If you would like help or advice organising any sort of event, or you have any questions, ideas, suggestions or criticisms, Heason Events would be very pleased to hear from you.
