Memory Colour
In the first article in our series on colour, we jumped in a bit at the deep end and looked at just what colour is. This second article will take a look at our perceptions of colour and debunk the accepted belief that colour is something that an object has and that we can clearly see just by looking. more
Two Days in the Clouds
Do I like putting messy forests in order? No, not particularly, but I am glad I ventured in as I found something I was not expecting, which can only be a good thing. more
Esen Tunar
Esen Tunar has been impressing people with his astrophotography and aurora pictures on Flickr for some time but he's not just a sky watcher as the images in this weeks featured photographer show. more
In Conversation with Paul Wakefield
Some of you may not have heard of Paul Wakefield - he isn't famous for leading workshops, he doesn't write for popular photographic magazines and his last published book was in the 1980s. more
Michael Lange
Some of the images I worked a long time on, so I went and revisited on multiple occasions and fiddled with them and I like to make myself really familiar with, almost at home with a location before I create an image. more
Sony A7R – Field Report
On the scene comes the Sony A7R... The A900 has a superb reputation for colour integrity and this has largely been carried through into the Nex line. I had high hopes for the A7 and A7R incarnations. more
Small Camera – Big Pictures
Expectations from the diminutive Sony A7R (and A7) are high, possibly too high. Would it be a ‘Leica killer’, could it establish Sony as a contender to join the ‘top table’ of manufacturers and sit alongside Canon and Nikon? more
On Paul Wakefield and “The Landscape”
While he continues to be recognised as one of the great photographers of his generation in the relatively narrow field where he makes his living, for far too long Paul Wakefield’s images have been outside of the mainstream. more
Canyon Lands
Time spent wandering is key to my photography. I find when in the right frame of mind, taking my time to be receptive and observing my surroundings, I’m most likely to find something that excites me to make an image. more
Artistic Style
Tap into your senses and let them come to the fore when you are out on the hill or wherever you are making pictures, and don’t be defeated if you have a bad day, for they come with the territory. more
Up, Up and Away!
So to conclude – get yourself into a balloon, in this country, or especially if you travel to another. My advice to all UK balloon company owners – do special photography flights and target your business towards us in the summer months. more
Paul Wakefield Workshop
If you ask many people who the seminal landscape photographers in the UK were I'm sure a majority would mention Joe Cornish and Charlie Waite. However who would Joe and Charlie mention if asked the same question. The answer would undoubtedly include the well known such as John Blakemore and Faye Godwin but on the colour side I can guarantee Paul Wakefield would be mentioned. Paul is perhaps not more
Judging Competitions
I’ve written about judging competitions and also other aspects of competitions in the past but in the last year, I’ve been involved in the judging and/or planning of two high profile competitions. more
The Joy of 6×6
Over the years there have been numerous 6x6 rangefinder cameras some with collapsible lenses. The last true 6x6 fixed format rangefinder was the Mamiya 6. more
Terry Johnson
At On Landscape have been aware of Terry and his growing body of work for some time. His approach to photographing trees is strongly graphic and quite reminiscent of some oriental art. more
