End frame: Evening Tracks, Swaledale by Garry Brannigan
There is a natural meeting point of all the lines in the middle of the picture which holds the eye in the frame; so often this is not the case and we wander off the page! The trees on each edge help to emphasis this point. more
Why did you take it?
This question is not given a lot of thought and this can be the difference between an excellent image and an average, or even a bad one and responses can be convoluted and unclear. more
End frame: Dovercourt Lighthouse by Neil Hulme
The lighthouse is a subject that has been shot many times but I think Neil has delivered an image with an air of reflective beauty and mystery. more
End frame: The Dysfunctional Family by Simon Baxter
One of the photographers I follow on YouTube, stands out for his woodland photography; Simon Baxter. Being able to watch Simon discovering, composing and making his images, provides an invaluable insight into his thinking and I hope plants creative seeds in my photographic mind. more
Alan Lait
There is something about the rugged beauty of the mountains, mixed with the often moody weather that I engage with and, although my early visits were more about reaching the top of the fells more
End frame: Vesturhorn by Esen Tunar
It still has that uplifting vibe that I felt the first time that I saw it, and I still feel like I’m stood in the very spot that he was just taking in the wondrous view before me, probably just like he did. more

Geometrical Landscapes
The viewpoint has turned this into an image that is actually about something completely different. What we see here is a perfectly balanced geometric patterned rendition of the landscape. more
Interview with Greg Stewart of Kozu Books
We work very closely with the photographers in order to create a photo book that totally reflects their identity, this is crucial to the finished book and its success. more
End frame: Tree Vision by Sandra Bartocha
I can remember this image stopped me in my tracks. It is taken from a series produced by Sandra and is also an image that is evidently an abstraction from reality. more
An exploration of Brian Eno’s ‘Ambient 4 : On Land’
The album includes tracks titled, ‘Lizard Point’, ‘Lantern Marsh’ and ‘Dunwich Beach, Autumn 1960’. My interest was piqued. Where were these places, and what did they have to do with the music? more

For me, it represents the darker and more foreboding side of Scotland and perhaps one which I should embrace more when I encounter it, rather than just purely seeking those wow moment – just one reason I have moved up here. more
