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
End frame: Rock, Water and Tree, Cascade Falls, Yosemite 2011 by William Neill
The delicious curving lead from the bottom left is beautifully revealed at this speed and water volume. It fulfils its role perfectly and draws the viewer through the image to the beautiful split rock. more
End frame: Black Lightning by Peter Jarver
I’d never seen storm images like that before, and I wanted to learn how. It took years of time, many disappointments, a few cameras, and a lot of getting wet, to develop an approach that works most of the time. more
End Frame: Wyoming, Train and Car, 1954 by Elliott Erwitt
The first thing that draws my attention is the billowing smoke from the locomotive, then the locomotive itself, and the line of freight cars seemingly stretching to the mountains. more
End frame: Fluitenkruid – Nel Talen
I first encountered Nel’s work through the International Garden Photographer of the Year competition. She was a finalist in the creative category with a very delicate, ethereal composition that immediately resonated with me. more

There have been many favourite influential images for me over the years. One I remain enamoured with, as much today as the first moment I saw it, is Metamorphosis by Alister Benn. more

End frame: Paria Canyon, Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness area in Northern Arizona by Jack Dykinga
A mecca of sorts for landscape photographers, Paria Canyon is certainly well documented. Nevertheless, Dykinga’s image stands apart. I was struck by the juxtaposition of the ancient petrified sand dunes with the withered branch. more
The Path Towards Expression – part 4
At the very root of the project “Totems” lies a critical opinion about the unsustainable relationship between human beings and their environment. more
End Frame: Autumn Leaves in Wood by Glenys Garnett
Are we looking at the mist in the woodland, or do the colder tones, along with the sparse nature of the leaves, represent the last throws of autumn and the onset of winter? more
End Frame: ‘Dead Camelthorn Trees, Dead Vlei, Sossusvlei, Namibia’ by Frans Lanting
To draw attention to the story he wants to tell, he has to make images which are beautiful, creative and compelling. Therefore, he is always looking for different perspectives and different ways to show us the world. more
End Frame: ‘High Light’ by Colin Prior
What is striking is his capability to capture the authentic spirit of place, and by doing so, his place within that place. He offers some of the most natural interpretations of a landscape more
End Frame: ‘Hrafntinnusker Fog Ice River’ by Bruce Percy
Bruce’s work also teaches us the value of building a relationship with the landscape that we photograph, of returning again and again. more
End frame: ‘Salt’ by Murray Fredericks
Something that stands the test of time and continues to show nuance over a sustained period. This is what Murray Fredericks work has been to me. more
