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
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
This months guest was Mark Litteljohn and we had a bunch of questions about his hand held photography and instinctual process, split toning, possible book ideas and more more
If you want to become a better nature photographer, you should dedicate more time to learning about your subject rather than photography. more

There are many secrets to be found on the rock platforms on the beaches close to Sydney (Australia). There are special places where the rocks are glorious colours – blue, green, yellow, orange and red. more
I do like watching the waves. It is relaxing and always exciting and unpredictable. Usually, I can spend hours trying to figure out or predict the next move and the next splash. more
I started making more abstract landscape images in 2021. National lockdown rules confined me to my local park. more
Based on my experiences, the images which seem to resonate and engage viewers are ones which leave room for the viewer to have their own interpretation of the image. more
Here in the forested mountains and limestone farming valleys of eastern West Virginia(US), wooded river and stream bottoms bristle with terrain features, vegetation communities, habitats, ecological dynamics, and natural architectures that I can’t resist. more
on Sketching Down in the Bottoms
I find it hard to believe that I would connect with a fellow photographer so familiar with my area through a UK online landscape photo journal. Amazing. I have been back to many of these places and am amazed by the changes from the seasonal flooding along the Connecticut. The past [...]
