Suzanne Mathia – Portrait of a Photographer
Suzanne describes herself as being very curious about the subjects she photographs. If followed, a high level of curiosity can lead to better photographs of even the most mundane of subjects. more
The Sheffield Great Flood of 1864
By the 19th Century, Sheffield’s rapid industrial expansion stimulated population growth, calling for a reliable water source to provide power for industry and to improve sanitation for residents, many of whom lived in squalid shared housing. Consequently, an ambitious programme of reservoir construction was undertaken. The Dale Dyke dam excavations began on 1st January 1859. On the evening of 11th March 1864, during a violent storm, a crack was spotted in the embankment of the recently completed Dale Dyke dam. more

I have always maintained throughout my life that I wanted to work at something I felt passionate about. I feel so lucky that photography has given me that platform. more

On Landscape Revisited
When I originally proposed the idea of On Landscape to my wife Charlotte over fourteen years ago, I would never have thought that it would have lasted as long as it has. On this 300th issue, I decided to take a look back at all of those previous issues to pick out some highlights for you to revisit (if you haven’t already). I’ve chosen a range of styles and genres of article, please let me know if you have more
Sandra Bartocha
I am a maximalist with strong opinions and a high demand for aesthetics, and I feel very strongly about the escapism quality of nature. My photographic world is full of light, colour and the small and mundane things in nature that are often overlooked. more
Any Questions, with special guest Mark Littlejohn

Know thy Subject
If you want to become a better nature photographer, you should dedicate more time to learning about your subject rather than photography. more
Terra Silva
Terra Silva are two Latin words. They loosely mean "the land of the forest". Since this project is about forests and trees and since my native language is a direct descendant of Latin, I thought it would be a fitting title. more
