Keep it Still
In this article, I will look mainly at ICM i.e. deliberately moving the camera during a single exposure, but also at multi-exposure in one frame, in-camera layering of two or more separate images and combinations of all these techniques. more

Endframe: East Cumberland Bay, November 13, 1914 by Frank Hurley
Since childhood I have been fascinated by the history of polar exploration, intrigued by the tales of adventure, the discovery of the unknown and the mortal dangers faced in the most hostile and remote landscapes on earth. Among the heroic tales of polar discovery, there are none to compete with the plight of the ill-fated 1914 Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition led by Sir Ernest Shackleton in his bid to be the first to lead a team across the Antarctic Continent: a more

My favourite locations are remote and not easily accessed; for me, it was always crucial to not have any human traces in the landscape I photograph. For me the essence of landscape photography is to discover, to take on challenges, to be part of adventures. more
My Home Landscape
One of those locations I came up with is a beautiful bay called Frazer beach, situated in Munmorah State Recreation Park. It's a bit more of a drive, 35-45 minutes in the car, but enough remoteness to put off many a landscape shooter who doesn't like to walk far. more
Colour as Form
Kodachrome, introduced in 1935, was the first colour film to be mass-marketed successfully. Although Kodachrome quickly became popular with hobbyists and commercial photographers, so-called “fine-art photographers” have initially shunned the use of colour, and many have expressed derisive views of colour photography. more

Finding Calm
I’ve often been told that my images portray a sense of calm and maybe that’s a result of what I find rewarding in an image or what my eye is naturally drawn to. more

End frame: Iceberg, Fjallsarlon, Iceland by Paul Wakefield
I said at the beginning that this is an image that remains very clearly in my head, and this, in our current world of visual overload, of itself says all that needs to be said about the impact this image has had on me. more
History of Art and Landscape – Part Three
In this installment of my history of landscape painting, I'm taking a look at one of the most artistically creative periods for landscape in early European history and that is the Dutch Golden Age. more
Julien Fumard
Before travelling I had all sorts of preconceived ideas on many topics. You know, having an unlimited access to culture can sometimes make you feel like you know a lot of things but in the end, you don’t really know anything until you live it. more
Alfredo Mora – Portrait of a Photographer
He was going out into the landscape with specific expectations and placed all his value on the final image instead of the actual experience of being out in nature – undermining his very intent for taking up photography in the outdoors, to begin with. more
Winds of Change
After Britain’s exit from the European Union, many have wondered what Britain’s place in the world is, what it should be and what it could become? more
