Donald Ford was one of the finest players ever to wear the maroon shirt of the mighty Heart of Midlothian FC. Donald starred for the maroons in the 1960s and 1970s in a period when Hearts struggled both on and off the pitch. He was part of the Scotland World Cup Squad that was the only unbeaten team at the finals in West Germany in 1974.
A footballer extraordinaire is now a photographer extraordinaire. Donald is one of Scotland's leading landscape photographers and his excellent work can be seen - and purchased - at his superb website http://www.donaldfordimages.com/
There are some stunning images there - it's well worth a look.

Thanks for calling our attention to such a fantastic photographer. Scotland is indeed a beautiful country, and he captures that very, very well.
Oh Terrific!! :D:D:D I love beautiful photographs.
Indeed a good man and footballer.
Good pic also!
His photos look like you could jump right into them. Thanks for sharing!
Wow - I love looking at great photos. Seems very talented in several different areas then. His fotball I wouldnt have looked but his photos are incredible.
I remember Donald scoring a late winner in a night-time Cup tie against Rangers at Tynecastle, about 1968. Also, during the 3-day week around 1973, I remember going to Firhill on a weekday afternoon when he sparkled against Partick Thistle.
Great servant to the Hearts.
