Giants of the Mystic forest
It’s a place that calms the mind, heals the soul and instils humility in those who walk into it. Walking among the giants makes you realise how tiny you and your problems are. more
Damian Ward
Damian lives north-west of London in an area that is not one of the UK’s more obvious photographic honeypots but does have some rather nice woodland. more
Thoughts on Beauty
Still, to the chagrin of some in the art business, most people consider beauty and art as almost synonymous. more
Ethics in photography
The thorny issue of ethics and moral responsibilities in documentary photography, particularly in the case of photojournalism has been discussed many times. more
Brian Kosoff
In contrast to the many landscape photographers who go to great lengths to exclude obvious signs of man from their images, Brian embraces these and imbues them with an elegance that defies their often humble origin more
Ebb and Flow
In October 2017, my relationship with landscape photography suddenly changed as if someone flipped a light switch. By not giving up on, but rather giving into the process, I found flow in my life (and photography) again. more

Realism and Honesty in Photography
The role of realism in photographs, as discussed in Guy Tal’s recent article on the morality and realism in photography, is as provocative as it is elusive. Guy’s article, whilst impeccably written and well received, stimulated debate and discussion both on our website and amongst many of my colleagues. more
Floris van Breugel
His photographs offer a different perspective on the American landscape that emphasises biodiversity and includes a sense of scale and delicacy while hinting at the epic adventures that may be had there. more
