Samantha Gibbons
We asked for some recommendations of people to interview on twitter last year and Samantha cropped up in a couple of recommendations. She very kindly agreed to answer the usual questions so... Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? Growing up in the leafy suburbs in the northwest of England lent itself to my love of nature and my curiosity/passion for art and, especially, drawing. The more I immerse myself into more
South Africa with Joe Cornish
I have had a love affair with South Africa for many years and recently had the good fortune to visit a couple of areas that were virgin territory for me in the company of good friend, Joe Cornish. We visited the Drakensberg Mountains and the Wild Coast in Kwa-Zulu Natal. This article is the first of two and covers the Drakensberg Mountains. First, a little explanation of the area and it’s attraction to photographers. more
The Irish Light – Peter Cox
Peter Cox is a landscape photographer based in the south west of Ireland. He moved back from the USA, where he was following according to his own account a rather unsatisfactory career in computer technology, to his native Ireland in 2005. His dream was to make a living from landscape photography, a difficult goal in Ireland to say the least. Although Ireland has produced several world-class landscape photographers over the past decade, many of them still have to make more
What’s in Your Bag? Bruce Cairns
We met up with Bruce Cairns when we tagged along on a Joe Cornish and David Ward workshop to the Yorkshire Dales. Bruce already had his Sigma DP2 (which he reviewed for us in this issue) with a very lovely JLM L-Plate and Grip on his Gitzo tripod but he let us take a look around his bag which we video'd on our iPhone as well. Don't be fooled by the photograph to more
What’s in your bag?
A new regular feature for On Landscape is a look into the photographic rucksack. If you're anything like me this changes on a regular basis and depends on where you're going but it's always interesting to see what people take with them and how they organise it. The feature will come in two forms, a short video view or a photo gallery. If you want to send in your own WIYB feature please provide between two and four photos of more
Twelve Significant Photos
In this new regular post, Tim Parkin - our editor - will write about his own photography and things that are happening in the making of the magazine or his own wanderings with a camera. It seems quite a meme in recent years to draw on Ansel Adam's "Twelve significant photographs in one year is a good crop" and produce your own 'best of 20xx' and so I thought I'd take an alt and I've spent a good while trying more

Nigel Clarke
This issue we're featuring a photographer local to both myself and Joe - Nigel Clarke also went on a one to one workshop with me to discover the pleasure and pain of large format photography. Since then he's been delving into platinum palladium too, to great effect. Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? Much of my education has been more
Joe Cornish – Readers Questions
Just before Christmas we asked our readers for a bunch of questions that we could put to Joe Cornish when he visited next and the response was fantastic. In the end we recorded two hours of audio but to keep installments to a useful length (a lot of people say they listen to them over breakfast or during a commute) we've split it into half hour sections. So, a big thank you to Joe and everyone who submitted their questions and here's more

Duncan Fawkes
Duncan Fawkes "Murk Illuminated" caught my attention on Flickr recently and I was pleased to find a very informative and enjoyable blog and a stream of very satisfying pictures and Duncan was happy to answer a few questions for On Landscape... Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? I grew up in the Scottish borders, somewhere I now recognise as a lovely part of the world. Like many youngsters I more
Edward Weston
Edward Weston is regarded by many as one of the most influential photographers of the twentieth century. Interest in Weston extends beyond his images, to that of his colourful life. His many relationships and his thinking processes are well documented; alot written by Weston himself in his Daybooks. It was in these journals, written over two decades, that Weston recorded his thoughts about his own work and the highs and lows of life as an artist; as well as more
My Personal Backup Strategy
I guess talk of backups and administration can appear boring to some, or avoided because its complicated and difficult, well yes it is perhaps a bit boring, but does not have to be complicated or hard. more
