Giving Beauty a Bad Name
David Ward considers the Art Community's attitude to beauty
Our intrepid adventurer has returned from the North with a new location guide for your delectation. Bamburgh may not be as exotic as Greenland but it has some wonderful bits of landscape above and beyond the stonking great castle sitting next to the village centre. We’ve also been out on location with Joe Cornish where we tested a few new items the first of which, the Mirex tilt shift adapter, appears in this issue. We also have David Ward talking about the divisions between the contemporary and popular art world’s views on Beauty. Finally we have our regular Joe Blogs column, our featured photographer Adam Clutterbuck and a review of a new book published by photographer Jeremy Moore about the new Welsh coastal path

Joe Blogs – Manipulated?
Very recently I gave a talk on behalf of the Beacon Camera Club at the Swan Theatre in Worcester. In the q&a session at the end, I was asked the (apparently innocent) question, “Do you manipulate your images?” In fact [ read ]
Giving Beauty a Bad Name
On the 14 October 2010 this image by German photographer Thomas Struth sold for £169,250 at an auction in London (the pre sale estimate was £90,000). Now many of the readers of this magazine might think this a vastly over-inflated [ read ]
on Joe Cornish – Reader’s Questions
These interviews and Q&A podcasts are not only very enjoyable in their own right (like listening to a radio discussion), but also excellent to listen to while scanning or post-processing images. Thanks Joe for introducing the two wildlife photographers you mentioned: they produce different but equally inspiring and unusual work. Adam [...]

on Put Your Questions to Hans Strand
Yes, medium format will have a tough future. Though there are still people (including myself) who think it is worth the extra cost to get an extra edge. The difference is more obvious when you make large prints. A one meter wide print from medium format will convince you about [...]

on Samantha Gibbons
Hi Samantha, it was great to see your images and to read how you feel about photography! I like what you say, "how beautiful the landscape around us really is.. It’s almost religious", as I feel almost the same! Your vistas have this subtle but intriguing light but I also like [...]
