A Cairngorms Learning Curve
I wanted to head deep into the Cairngorms to one of the places I’d longed to photograph in winter for many years; the Loch A’an Basin. more
Landscape as Habitat
It would be difficult to argue with the proposition that all landscape is habitat. Across the world, animals thrive and make their homes in every niche of the ecosystem. With wildlife film-making being the widely disseminated art form that it is, everyone is aware of the sheer variety and peculiarity of the natural world, evolved through time and adaptation. more
A Last Interview with Richard White
The interview below is the final transcription of that dialogue with Richard. It's taken us a few months to be able to process this interview, as we recognise what it represents. more
Noise Reduction
As noisy as our world is today, it is likely to get noisier still in the years ahead. Merchants of noise—those who profit from noise—are no longer just minor inconveniences, they are enormously powerful media machines. more

The essence of the current debate is, at what point does post-processing cease to approximate reality as it was and begin to depict reality as the photographer wished it to be? more
Landscape and the Philosophers of Photography
The battle between the photographer and the camera to provide an informative image and avoiding redundancy is an increasing challenge as novel locations become commonplace and cameras and digital processing more sophisticated. more
Shooting in the Dark

Motivations in Landscape Photography
I urge each of you reading to articulate if only to yourself, what motivates you and why, and what you do to drive your own motivation. more
