Luminosity and Contrast by Alister Benn
Someone once said to me “Writing about composition is a bit like dancing about architecture”. A large amount what we tend to do is instinctive, both during capture and in post-processing, and it’s very hard to put these things into words. more
Tina Freeman’s “Lamentations”
The project Lamentations is a series of diptychs that function as stories about climate change, ecological balance, and the connectedness of things across time and space. more
End frame: Altitude 2 by Hengki Koentjoro
Hengki Koentjoro’s work demonstrates how black and white photography can be so much more than these two colours. His work encompasses the many shades of grey in between. more
Mood, Emotion and Photographic Meanings
It is not always easy to express oneself or understand one's mood and meaning, but those who undertake photography as a means of expression have embarked on the most beautiful journey of their life. more
End frame: Glowing Aspens, Castle Creek Valley, Colorado by John Sexton
From the earliest days of my journey in landscape photography, John Sexton has been an inspiration. As one of Ansel Adams’ former assistants, his dedication to producing fine art, black & white imagery using traditional materials is legendary. more
End frame: Flowers for Miles by Erin Babnik
I started photography a few years ago and have been following a select few photographers over this time who have always given me inspiration to me. I follow them purely because of their love and passion and skill in photography. more
End frame: Snowbird – Ritual Hieroglyph, Stanton Moor, 1977 by Thomas Joshua Cooper
The story starts with the ritualistic landscape itself, genuinely ritualistic, on the plateau of the moor and within half a mile of TJC’s image is the Nine Ladies stone circle, a monument 3,000 to 4,000 years old and itself surrounded by over 70 burial barrows and stone cairns. more
Outer Hebrides
When Mother Nature is at her worst, the Outer Hebrides have that “edge of the world” feel, where a dramatic but unprotected coastline meets the full force of the Atlantic. more
End frame: Spirit of the mountains
When you find yourself staring at a small fraction of the mountain world – such as the rocks’ hues spice with touches of early snow’s traces - enough to become a very small particle of that world then you might experience the pure beauty. more
The Dunes at Oceano
The area has an interesting history and has been the subject of some classic photographs, most notably by Edward Weston, his son Brett Weston and Ansel Adams more
A Question of Meaning
I believe that what a photograph is about is but one manifestation of self-expression. I express myself in every photograph by way of the decisions I make at the time of capture and in processing. more
In need of a narrative
If you're reading this then you're probably a disciple of the quest to explore nature in all its forms; hiking, discovering, conquering and escaping into mindfulness. We would argue there's a human need for photographing in these places. We want to sometimes tame them and idealise them, set ourselves a compositional challenge and bend the location to our will. It's about unearthing something unseen, to create surprises, offering a wider acknowledgement that our own way of seeing is unique more
The quests of landscape photography
What motivates a landscape photographer to do what he or she does? What is the drive that makes the photographer pick up a camera and walk into nature, sometimes at ungodly hours of the day and in testing weather? more
End frame: A Sudden Squall, The Stirling Falls, Milford Sound, New Zealand by Jem Southam
In the blink of an eye, the elements in this part of the world regularly shift the sublime to the extreme. The weather here, in all of its variations, is a constant revelation. more
Dispatches from the collapse
When I created the images in the series, Dispatches from the collapse, hope was far from my mind. Rather, I imagined the pieces as relics found in a drawer in an abandoned house, decades from now. more
