"It's all been done before", people say, "There are no original ideas". Well they may well be right but this hasn't stopped artists from working in familiar territory and creating inspiring, beautiful and thought provoking work - all at once sometimes. Having recently purchased a book discussing a recent exhibition of Hiroshi Sugimoto and Mark Rothko I was interested in the abstract 'split horizon' meme and tried to follow it backward which made a quite interesting journey.
This issue has the first in a two part discussion of range of David Ward's images and an interview with Paul Whiting, a winner of the Amateur Photographer of the Year competition in 2005 - we'll ask how this experience affected his photography. Paul Arthur discusses the Adobe Creative Cloud and asks is it good for photographers.
We've also got a short discussion of ICC profiles, using Photoshop curves as a metaphor for understanding them and we have Dave Parry as our featured photographer.
The results of our camera survey is included in this issue too - not too many big surprises but it makes for interesting reading none the less.

Understanding Input and Output ICC Profiles
One of the things that puzzles people more than any other in colour management, printing and scanning, is just what icc profiles are and do. more
Dave Parry
Dave Parry reviewed the Chamonix 045F1 in our last issue and we thought we'd ask him about his own photography and how he occasionally combines his love of climbing and landscape to make great environmental portraits. more
Is Adobe Creative Cloud Bad For Photographers?
Well, yes. And no. As usual, it depends on your perspective, what your current and future usage of Photoshop is likely to be, what other services you may need from Adobe and how you organise your photographic library. more
Camera Survey
Just over a month ago we asked our readers to tell us what cameras they used for their landscape photography and we had a great response. We've spent a bit of time analysing the results (my programming skills come in useful still occasionally) and here they are! more
