End frame: Dukan Lake, 1974 Kurdistan Region, Iraq by Bruno Barbey
I found it in a bookshop in 1998 even though I was broke I bought it, love at first sight. I realise that this book has deeply influenced me. I can almost see a little bit of my photography in every photograph in the book, inspiring me and moving me. more
Book Reviews
The luxury of having more time to prepare an interview with a photographer is that I can spend a bit of time trying to find any publications they’ve produced in order to get more background information. In Claude Fiddler’s case, I found two of his previous publications and managed to get them delivered quite quickly. more
The Deed and the Glory
What I couldn’t know was how living as an artist, spending more time outdoors, investing more time in experiences and in pursuit of personal interests, and making do with less income, would change me as a person. more
Flash and Medieval Art
Connecting blue and red on a single frame can be interpreted as the warmth of the fire and the cold of the night. This motif has pursued people since prehistory. In general the night is full of similar contrasts. more
Inside the High Sierra
I’ve been photographing in the High Sierra for 35 years and I feel the body of work is significant. I haven’t changed the way I work over that timeframe. more
Huibo Hou
don’t intentionally chase excitement or thrill from doing landscape photography, although I certainly enjoy those moments when they show up! Quite the opposite, I am doing landscape photography because it lets me slow down and I can take my time to observe, discover, and create. more
A Morning in a Magical Forest

Book Reviews
I have to admit to being a big fan of Dan Baumbach’s work. His eye for a complex but elegant detail and commitment to working in small geographic areas have really paid dividends over the years more
End frame: Weed Against Sky, 1948 by Harry Callahan
However, it was at the Guild where he experienced his photographic epiphany. He attended a lecture and workshop given by Ansel Adams. Adams’ work exhilarated him... more
Richard Martin – Portrait of a Photographer
By adopting and recognising the concept of Wabi Sabi in nature, Richard is able to find stories worth telling in a way that differentiates his work. more
Regarding Passion
It is the journey, not the destination, which is most important to the harmoniously passionate individual. Why else, for instance, would you wish to become a writer if you don't enjoy the act of dancing with words? more
Jocelyn Horsfall
Impermanence, imperfection and decay will always provide visual opportunities but are just one part of Nature’s story. more
Seasons
It can often seem like one season blurs into another. The individual distinctness of each one has, over the years, fallen away. more
Travels with a Seneca 8×10 Camera
I have a clear image of the photo that I would like to take, in which there is a well-defined foreground and in the background, there is a remarkable scenery of the beautiful and massive mountains still covered by snow. more
End frame: Puglia 1978 by Franco Fontana
I think we can learn from him that great photographs don’t have to be of spectacular, iconic places. There are interesting images to be made all around us; we just have to look harder, and pursue what resonates with our own personality, curiosity, and imagination to find our own voice. more
