...that are a pleasure to own and show a unique eye for composition and light. For those of you who already know and love Paul Wakefield's work you will be familiar with the process occasional revisiting his website waiting for new photos to appear. Well not only is there some new work online but there is also a book coming...
...area of open scrubland that I would normally pass by on the way to one of my preferred locations. It had left in its wake a tangled mess of sinuous black whip-like branches. In places it resembled black spaghetti, and provided a real challenge to present as anything other than complete disorder. Despite the car park being a few hundred...
...took the photo I knew that I had come across something beautiful and I knew exactly what route my project would be going down. Before this moment I had no idea of what I would find in Iceland or if I would come across anything worthy for a project at all. That moment inspired me throughout the rest of the...
...was ‘king of the mountain’ though it must be said Hasselblad are lagging behind Phase’s IQ backs. The screen on my Hasselblad is frankly laughable compared to that of the D800 or in fact any compact camera available today at any price. For checking composition focus accuracy etc it is useless but once you accept its limitations it is possible...
I have known David and admired his work for a few years now though our mutual connection with the filmwasters.com forum.

Then as I’ve already mentioned it was revitalised again when I had children… After a few years working as a computer artist we decided to move...
...different, the tide changes and the state of the sea changes. The prevailing weather conditions change everything again. Also, you never know when something interesting is going to get washed up. There is always something new to learn, practice or discover. I’ve grown to love this place, warts and all. You can see more of Chris Pattison's work at landskywater.com...
...the Lake District and immediately after, Scotland where I'm currently posting this. Unfortunately, the video appears to have rendered as a small screen inside a large black box. I hope this does not reduce the pleasure of viewing too much and I will rectify when back in the office in a couple of weeks time. [vimeo https://vimeo.com/115308066 w=456] ...
...you have no blacked out view finder so you can see exactly what is happening at the time the shutter is tripped, great for fast moving light! It is difficult to explain but I find composing in the square format far more natural for me than any other format I have tried. You spent a lot of time in your...
