The hardcover coffee table book showcases the beauty of the country in 200 photographs.
Scott, a former air force officer and diplomat and an Iraq war veteran, went from deep snow in the Australian alps to the dust of the central Australian deserts to create the work.
The book represents more than 15 years of scouring the country for the perfect image.
"Travelling and exploring these locations had been a powerful way for me to reconnect to the natural world and appreciate the beauty that is all around us," Scott said.
"I can't wait to share this book with others. Each photograph is ultimately a record of an event or an experience that has formed part of my story of Australian photographic exploration."
The book was released this week, coinciding with he and wife Phillipa's second daughter's first birthday.
Scott's book is available for $75 online at scottleggo.com or at his Canberra gallery in Jardine Street, Kingston.
He is also generously providing two copies of Australia - A Photographic Journey to give away to readers of The Canberra Times.
