End frame: Chongqing XI, Chongqing Municipality by Nadav Kander
An image I believe demonstrates many of these qualities and a favourite of mine is ‘Chongqing XI, Chongqing Municipality’ by Nadav Kander. It is part of his award-winning series ‘Yangtze, The Long River’. more
End frame: East Branch, Middle Brook, Somerset County, New Jersey by William Neill
There is the calm of autumn emphasised by the lack of movement in the water and in the trees, creating perfect reflections. It is quite meditative. more
End frame: Sea Mist, Iceland by Tim Rudman
Many excellent photographers have developed compelling bodies of work with Iceland as the sources of their inspiration. But the work I keep returning to is that of the master monochrome printer, Tim Rudman. more
End frame: Confluence by Jenifer Bunnett
At first glance, it seems that there is just a single white wave starting its return to the sea but then my eye is drawn deeper into the photograph where there are actually many layers. more
End frame: School’s Out, Ballachulish by Tim Parkin
Tim Parkin rarely makes an image in black and white and does not normally include people. His photograph ‘School's Out’ is, therefore, a break in his usual style. more
End frame: Cedars and rock circle, Merced River, Yosemite National Park, California, 1986 by William Neill
It hints at something out of the natural order. Peaceful but somehow slightly unsettling. There are many of the usual components of a landscape photograph, trees and rocks and water but no foliage. more
End frame: Boreray, St Kilda by Scott Robertson
I have never been to the St Kilda archipelago, but thanks to Scott's enormous efforts I feel like I have. more

Lars-Åke Nygren chooses one Hans Strand's images, "Late Autumn mist, Lake Trekanten, Sweden" as our End Frame more
End frame: Kärrmark by Jan Tove
The chaos has become cosmos, order. But there is something unpleasant about the picture, the branches stick to me and the moody colour scale and the messy bushes force the viewer to choose whether it's beautiful or just scary. more
End Frame: Convergence, Iceland by Rafael Rojas
There is just enough space between the receding wave which mirrors the cliff exactly and the cliff to draw you through to explore the rest of the picture but always pulls you back to that point to start again..... Genius. more
End Frame: Mendenhall Glacier, 1973 by Brett Weston
This image was photographed in 1973, and the location is in coastal, South East Alaska. The glacier is 13.6 miles long and has retreated 1.75 miles since 1929. more
End Frame: “Calm, San Gimignano, Tuscany” by Charlie Waite
It exudes serenity, at one with the world; in fact, it is the epitome of mindfulness. more
End Frame: The flight of the Örn by Nils Strindberg
The image was taken by Nils Strindberg, a member of the Swedish 1897 An-drée Arctic expedition. more
End Frame: The Pond Moonrise by Edward Steichen
It was my "Marmite picture" in my teens. I had cut out a copy (obviously) from an article in Amateur Photographer, about Edward Steichen; part of a series on the history of Photography. more
