Alongside On Landscape, one of my other business is the scanning of film for artists, museums, publishers, etc. We’re the only dedicated drum scanning company in the UK and we get film sent to us from all over, China to Brazil, Sweden to New Zealand. We’ve noticed in the last year an increasing interest in large format film and along with the increase in new large format cameras being produced (Chamonix, Intrepid, Gibellini, etc.), we’re fairly sure that the use of large format is growing again. To celebrate the fact, myself and Richard Childs have put together a workshop and a series of articles introducing large format, explaining the reasons behind it, the equipment and skills involved and why it’s still relevant today despite all of its challenges.

Land of my Father
Months go by in a doldrum state where nothing feels right and I am uninspired by what I make, and then, little by little, things turn around and something emerges from the mayhem. more
Hokkaido
I have been fortunate to photograph many landscapes in a variety of different countries throughout the world but the photographs I had seen of Japan always seemed to have a difference that was difficult to categorise. more
Layers
I often think of images as parts put together in a visually interesting manner. When the parts come together eloquently, they create meaning and message. more
Atchafalaya Basin, Louisiana
The cypress trees of the Atchafalaya in Southwest Louisiana are the major stars in a scene about as different as I could have chosen to photograph next, but every bit as elegant, and as humbling. more
