For the last 30 years, I've been documenting Scotland's salmon net fishermen.
I always dreamed one day I would publish a book of my photographs.
Now with your help I can.
Please support my @DewiLewis @Kickstarter campaign and make my dream a reality.

All of us at Document Scotland past and present were shocked and saddened by the passing of Martin Parr, a genuine friend and supporter of ours over the years.
Martin co-curated our A Contested Land exhibition with us at the Foundation in 2019. R.I.P.
