History of Art and Landscape – Part Two
A few issues back, Joe Cornish, David Ward and I started a chat about the origins of landscape and composition in art.

Abstraction in Photography
Appreciation of abstract photography also requires a degree of openness on the part of viewers—a willingness to allow an abstract image to impart its intended effect, rather than just to serve as a means of portraying recognisable objects or scenes. more
