End frame: Trees from a Train No. 109 by Cole Thompson
Cole Thompson's display of spontaneity, discovery, experimentation and tenacity is certainly not unique for photographic artists; most seasoned landscape photographers employ them at one time or another in the execution of their work. I more
End frame: Winter Morning by Theo Bosboom
At first glance, there’s not much happening in the bottom half of the frame, but it’s a wealth of fine texture and colour nuances, bringing a subtle line up from bottom left towards top right that meets the curve of snow crust. more
End Frame: Callanish Shadows by Wojciech Kruczynski
The only aspect allowed to move freely outside this circle is the energy flow. Where is it going and why? What other energy resides in the circle? Why are they there? more
End Frame: Gull’s Nest, Midsummer Eve, Isle of Skye by Bill Brandt
I saw this at an exhibition sometime in the 1980s and it made a deep impression on me. The nest in the foreground with its three eggs and a single feather has a wonderful sense of intimacy, of secrecy. more
End frame: Lone Tree by Michael Kenna
The simple delineation between the ground and sky using subtle changes of grey tones allows the curved V-shaped horizon to sweep across the image gently and is critical in forming a feeling of depth and space. more
End frame: Snow Lines by Lizzie Shepherd
Although the subject is a snowy scene, this is not a cold photograph. The fringe of branches that gracefully dangle over the top of the frame create a sense of haven. more
End frame: Tidal Creek at Schiermonnikoog by Theo Bosboom
I would recommend everyone to go through the process of choosing a single 'end frame' image. It turns out to be an excellent, almost cathartic, exercise of reflection. more
End frame: “A Walk in Mionsi” by Josef Sudek
It’s a strange feeling when you come across a photograph that really echoes your own personal vision as a photographer. Especially so when the picture in question was made before you were even born.... more
End Frame: ‘Dance Off’ by Jeremy Barrett
I had admired his work for a while, his pictures often muted in colour and packed full of brooding moodiness. His woodland images always stood out, organising the chaos into constructive and beautiful ways, capturing fantastic scenes in stunning light. more
End Frame: “The Barn” by Selden B Hill
This image on the cover of the book The Unpainted South caught my eye in a book shop in South Carolina in April 2019. more
End Frame: Lake Baikal from Space by National Geographic and NASA
The majority of images within were shot from the Space Shuttle in the 1980s and ‘90s. There are some earlier ones from the Apollo programme as well. Most of the images are of the earth’s surface, with just a few concentrating on ionospheric meteorology, like auroras. more
End frame: Gateway to the Moors II, North York Moors by Joe Cornish
The golden light on the weathered, wooden finger-post sign, the positioning of the very top of the post against a darker background, the angles of the ‘fingers’ themselves and the intriguing, yet to be discovered, places with unknown names etched in timber and only a few miles away, by pleasant foot, in various directions. more
End frame: Trump Tower, Manhattan by Roger Arnall
Roger is an Australian photographer who will be known personally to many readers. We first crossed paths on a 'light and land' tour twelve years ago, and have travelled together many times since. more
End frame: Cape Light – Joel Meyerowitz
We are all exposed to a massive amount of photography, growing at an exponential rate, but how many of these images ever really stick with us? How many have the profound effect that the artist probably hoped for? How many times have you viewed an image that changed your life? more
End frame: ‘Iona Sun’ by Paul Kenny
When asked to write for the End Frame section of On Landscape, one artist that sprung to mind among many of my favourites was Paul Kenny and especially the image ‘Iona Sun’. more
