End frame: Tulip Celebrations – 4 by John Blakemore
The picture I have chosen is a part of John Blakemore’s tulip journey called ‘Tulip Celebrations - 4’. Before I explain my choice of photograph, allow me to say a little about John’s approach to photography, drawing on his own words. more
Fleeting Reflections II by Mike Curry
I remember when I first saw Mike Curry’s book, Fleeting Reflections. I was captivated by the utterly alien images presented. The front cover, in particular, reminded me of a Joy Division T-shirt I used to own more
4×4 Portfolios
Our 4x4 feature is a set of four mini landscape photography portfolios submitted by: Elancharan Gunasekaran, Kenny Thatcher, Ronald A. Lake & Vidya Kane more
Ascension
The photos were taken as part of my travels through South India, Tamil Nadu, from end March 2023 to early April 2023. more
Limited and Infinite
These photos come from a nearby mountain that has become my home away from home over the past few years. Here, I can find solitude any day of the week, which is a requirement for my image making and mental well being. more
Sense of a Forest
These four images portray segments of the wooded areas along one short stretch of the Connecticut River just north of Essex. more
Coastal Dreams
“Pink Sweep“, “Pacific Fantasia” and “Pastel Dreams” were made along California’s Pacific coastline. “Eternity” was made at Freycinet National Park in Tasmania, Australia. more
The Point of the Point of the Deliverance
Perhaps my longest personal project is The Point of the Deliverance, a journey around the west coasts of Scotland and Ireland with a large format camera, dark tent and all the chemicals and equipment needed to make tintypes and ambrotypes. more
Brent Clark
Some qualities I find admirable in my favourite artists are: confidence, attention to detail, clean and intentional composition, colour/tonal balance, creativity, deep feelings, a close relationship with their local nature, work ethic, morality, intrinsic motivation, community-building, and storytelling. more
A Bridge, Not a Barrier
Not every meaningful experience we have in nature can or should be turned into a photograph either. It’s important to be able to recognise when a moment is too fragile or too fleeting, and in order to still be able to experience it ourselves, to not attempt to photograph it at all. more
Seven Years in the Desert
One of the most personally rewarding aspects of moving to California eight years ago has been my discovery of, and growing fascination (some would say obsession) with, the incredible desert landscape of Joshua Tree National Park. more
End frame: Music Temple, Glen Canyon, Utah by Tad Nichols
Music Temple shows a calm curved section of the Colorado River as it runs beneath curved buttresses of sandstone. The bright sunlit sections contrast with the dark streaks of desert patina on the rock. more
Fieldwork by Finn Hopson
Finn Hopson lives in the south of England, very near to the South Downs a range of rolling landscape that ranges from Winchester to Eastbourne. The land has been farmed for many generations, definitely as far back as the early Roman occupation and almost certainly going back to times just after the ice age. more
Misaki Nagao
I was also very proud that my photos of the forests in Japan were recognised. It is not that I shot the photos to win an award, but I am happy that the light, trees, and textures that I think are good caught the eyes of prestigious photographers. more
Phenomenological Landscapes
There is, however, another side of this aspect of being a photographer that can have benefit in our interactions with the phenomenological landscape. A camera is a separating device but also a means of focusing our attention. more
