...Other favourites are the classic Staithes view and the revealed skeleton of a boat at Beaumont Quay in Essex. A lot of readers may be underwhelmed by the lack of overtly composed perspective, complimentary light or dramatic subject matter but the book's premise is communicating an idea and feeling about the coast and spending a while with these pictures does...
...books (including getting David Cameron to put his hand in his pocket to buy a copy for the royal wedding recently!) this is in comparison quite an epic with 263 pages compared with the first's 120 pages. The format of the book is a hardback, square paged 10"x10" and each image sites on each typical spead consists of an image...
...of the sea. The rain fell like a sad song and in that moment, the future did not exist. The only souls I saw were underwater ghosts. Stuttering candles are extinguished by the sea.

...this meant parks, bridges, buildings etc. I won a few competitions and upgraded to a Minolta XD5 but the hobby disappeared when I had to choose between buying a BBC computer or keeping the cameras. The computer won and my career followed. When I first went to university to study electrical engineering I also went walking in the Lake District...
...the chat for your enjoyment although make sure you've been to the loo before you listen to it :-) You can see more of Jon Brocks work at his website http://www.jonbrockphotography.com/.

...combine video, stills and moving stills. I may never publish the result – it’s just for my own pleasure. I suppose the other big change is that I am no longer motivated by competitions. There are so many of them out there now that it’s all a bit overwhelming. The publicity they can generate is sometimes useful and I won’t...
...browse with a tight binding that doesn’t lay flat without a lot of pressure. Overall a little disappointed. If you want to see the work I would like to see made into a book - take a look here (http://www.klotzgallery.com/?page_id=2576). Sean Scully - Walls of Aran / Mariana Cook - Stone Walls I’ve had in the back of my mind...
...Dale (named for its six joining valleys) to name but a few. Each valley has its own individual look and feel - some are barren and beautifully desolate, some are complex and varied where each new twist reveals a completely different eco-system of plants and trees. I began to coincide my visits with the seasonal events I’d witness. Wild garlic,...
...there is no single correct answer. For the example ISO was compromised first, setting it to ISO800 to allow a short shutter speed to combat motion blur due to the wind. Following similar logic, the aperture was set to f8 (the widest possible with the lens and extended). A practice a few days before showed that a shutter speed of...
I had the pleasure of coming along to Tim’s Big Camera Comparison which featured in Issue 28. As we know, being the ultimate geek, Tim loves to compare pretty much everything photographic – cameras, resolution, film, colour, you name it. And congratulations to Tim for putting together such a thorough and informative test. I got the chance last week to...
