Clive Minnitt
We're featuring a photographer that many people know as part of a great double act with Phil Malpas. We've interviewed Phil in a previous issue and he's shown just what a great photographer he is and we now feature Clive Minnitt to show just how strong his images are also. Take it away Clive. Santorini Oia at dusk Can more

First Light – Joe Cornish
I first read Joe Cornish’s First Light about 7 years ago and it had a dramatic effect on my photography. First Light is not - as you might think - about the light first thing in the morning but about the light coming first. This could be first thing in the morning or the evening or infact any time of the day, but what is important is the quality of the light. The book is split into 7 chapters more
London’s Unforgettable Summer
As a London based photographer I have built up a detailed knowledge of the best places to make images of the city over years of practise. This summer, as you may have noticed there were one or two things going on in the capital raising its profile to lofty heights. This is my account of the last six weeks in our capital with a few pointers on creating collection of images different to any I had made before. more
Colin Bell
Colin Bell is our willing victim this week - an ex video games developer amongst other things, Colin has a particular affinity for the Lake District and his recent images from Rydal Water particularly caught my eye.. In most photographers lives there are 'epiphanic’ moments where things become clear, or new directions are formed. What were your two main moments and how did they change your photography? After getting my more
Peter Dombrovskis
Continuing in our video review of Peter Dombrovskis' work we look at the rarest and arguably the best of his books. Simply titled 'Dombrovskis', the book is a compilation of his work with exacting production standards.

Interview with Simon Butterworth
The Bings are Scotland's version of the great oil/gas rush that is currently happening in Alaska and America but in this case the oil shale was baked in great ovens to remove the oil. more
Peter Dombrovskis, On the Mountain
Continuing our overview of Peter Dombrovskis published books we move onto 'On the Mountain' which was published in the same year that Peter died.

Interview with David Ward
Last week we put a call out on Facebook and Twitter to solicit questions to ask David Ward in an upcoming interview. We had a great response and we chose the best questions and recorded the result. David was his usual cooperative self and I'm sure we could have gone on a lot longer. https://youtu.be/9obIgvvMZJI Here's a few of David's recent images and you can see more at his website https://www.davidward.photo. more

This week we have Phil Malpas as our featured photographer. Phil leads tours and workshop for various companies including Light and Land and My Photoschool and has books on the use of colour in photography, travel photography and a portfolio/guide book with Clive Minnit on 'Finding the Picture'. In most photographers lives there are ‘epiphanic’ moments where things become clear, or new directions are formed. What were your two main more
The 10,000 Hour Rule
For a long time now I have been intrigued by the number of photographers (professional and amateur) who are, or have been involved with music to some extent in the past. Whether that be playing an instrument ( sometimes as a professional) or writing music for fun or to accompany their images or as I have done. I wouldn't be as interested if an artist had worked in two visual art more
Joe Rainbow
In most photographers lives there are 'epiphanic’ moments, however small they seem at the time, where things become clear, or new directions are formed. What were your two main moments and how did they change your photography? I think the first clear and decisive 'epiphanic' moment in my photographic career, was when I bought an Olympus OM 30 slr from a friend when I was about 17 years old and more
The Trouble with Conservation Photography
The truth is that “conservation photography” is green only in the very shallowest of senses. It smacks, unfortunately, of “do as I say, not as I do”. more

Wild Rivers – Peter Dombrovskis
One of Joe Cornish's inspirations was and still is Tasmanian photographer Peter Dombrovkis. In this first of a series of videos Joe talks to Tim Parkin about the series of books that were published by Peter and his wife. The first book is 'Wild Rivers', the only book published during Peter's sadly too short life. https://youtu.be/fiJ7dGGFvxg Read more on Peter Dombrovskis Peter Dombrovskis Master Photographer Endframe: “Deciduous Beech In Winter, Cradle Mountain more
