Fontainebleau – Intimate Landscape: A Book Review
If there is a single place that could be considered the home of the modern landscape, I’d have to choose Fontainebleau. Note that I say landscape and not landscape photography ... more
Home
In early September, John Ash and Paul Gotts announced the launch of their fifth photo book, “Home,” for a six-week pre-order period. The book features 38 images from Mali Davies, Mick Houghton, and myself. more
If The Woods Whispered Would You Hear Them?
Working with a subject I feel passionate about and inspired by, the making of the images seemed to happen so naturally. The journey of image making and text creation has been a very personal one, but one I feel so proud to be sharing with a wider audience. more
Woodwork by Finn Hopson
There is too much to see and no single photograph could possibly capture it all.” but he does a great job of capturing a broad range of character throughout the seasons. more
NAMIB by Malcolm Macgregor
The design is continued inside, minimal but tasteful. I wasn’t surprised when I learned it was Eddie Ephraums who designed this for Malcolm, he has a great eye for a tight design that really complements photography. more
Misplacements
The photos show man-made objects whose purpose is no longer clear, or they have lost their function but are still present in the natural environment. more
Signs of Devotion
It is often said that painting is an additive art (defined by what is put in) while photography is subtractive (defined by what is left out). Yet Signs of Devotion is filled with many images that seem defined by what is left in. more
“The Great Wilderness” by Alex Nail
I think it’s fair to say that only a handful of people consistently take great photographs of the mountains in the UK. For one, the act of getting up into the mountains isn’t trivial. more
The Journey
The thrill of such moments hasn't diminished for me. Whether seeing this misty meadow, the lacey texture of waterfall spray, the glint of Sierra sunlight on granite, or the tapestries of an evening forest, Yosemite has delivered a transcendent experience to me. more
Fleeting Reflections II by Mike Curry
I remember when I first saw Mike Curry’s book, Fleeting Reflections. I was captivated by the utterly alien images presented. The front cover, in particular, reminded me of a Joy Division T-shirt I used to own more
Fieldwork by Finn Hopson
Finn Hopson lives in the south of England, very near to the South Downs a range of rolling landscape that ranges from Winchester to Eastbourne. The land has been farmed for many generations, definitely as far back as the early Roman occupation and almost certainly going back to times just after the ice age. more
Out of Darkness – Book Review
Alister Benn is Scottish by birth and has lived in the Highlands of Scotland for quite some time. Firstly on the Isle of Skye and latterly in mainland Lochaber. And yet his first book is a deep dive project into the remote Gobi desert in Northern China. more
Theo Bosboom – Back to Iceland
Theo’s book, Iceland Pure sits alongside my copy of the Haaberg’s Iceland in All its Splendour and Hans Strand’s Iceland: Above and Below as my reference sources for images of Iceland’s sublime beauty. more
Time To Wonder by Joe Cornish
As Joe has already mentioned in his own overview of the Fountains Abbey project, it wasn’t really his favourite subject matter. In fact, as far as landscape goes, you couldn’t get much further away from his love of mountains and wild places. But a challenging job like this is just why you need someone like Joe Cornish to get the very best out of a landscape such as this. more
Book Reviews
Most photographers have experimented with intentional camera movement or multiple exposures at some point. Usually just setting a long exposure of a few seconds and waving the camera at some exciting subject matter more
