Steve Gosling and the desire to touch…
Two images then, one which calls for the viewer to reach out and stroke its softness whilst the other forbids any such interference. more
End frame: Pale Shelter by Mark Littlejohn
Why am I drawn to it so much? I think the combination of the blizzard-like conditions, which produce a whiteout around the whole border of the image, added to the deep snow on the ground make for a truly beautiful winter scene. more
Chalk Hills White Horses
A surprise to find the words when photographing the White Horses and Hill figures in Southern England. more
Photographing the Peak District
I’m not particularly knowledgeable about the Peak District’s viewpoints so I wanted to see how these met my own understanding of the locations. more
The long, lonely and often cold journey
Sometimes you start a story without realising you have done so. The narrative follows its own path, finds its own pace and carries you along unaware of its existence. more
Endframe: Gateway to the Moors II by Joe Cornish

Thomas Peck’s Critiques
I make no apologies for focussing on Marc Adamus in this article. A photographer who, in every sense of the word (awe, majesty, grandeur, fear etc), makes Sublime images. more
