It was probably over a decade ago, more like 15 years I imagine, when I first saw Dan's photographs. I think it may have been on Fred Miranda or possibly via a blog circle. more

Jennifer Renwick – Portrait of a Photographer
Matt Payne |
I decided to focus on the artwork of a photographer who has long inspired me, not only because her photographs are powerful, evocative, and unique, but because she is one heck of an amazing person and a fabulous steward of the natural places we all cherish. more
Familiarity Breeds Content
Adam Pierzchala |
Many photographers believe that repeatedly visiting a location not only gives them that familiarity with the area to more easily get better photographs of subjects they know well, but crucially they also find it easier to make more incisive new images, showing the character of a location and how it changes with light, weather, seasons and indeed the photographer’s own mood. more
West of the Sun
Toby Deveson & Anna McNay |
Back in January one of our readers, Anna McNay, got in touch to see if we'd be interested in an interview with Toby Deveson. He uses his old Nikkormat and the same 24mm lens that he ‘borrowed’ from your father more than 20 years ago. He finalises each frame in-camera and doesn't crop images in the darkroom. I more

Many of you will already know or will have heard of The Devil’s Dictionary by Ambrose Bierce which is often cited as one of the greatest satirical works of American literature. more

End frame: Lone Tree by Michael Kenna
Mark Banks |
The simple delineation between the ground and sky using subtle changes of grey tones allows the curved V-shaped horizon to sweep across the image gently and is critical in forming a feeling of depth and space. more
Grounded
Gill Moon |
This photography project began as a piece of work to document a year in the life of Hollesley Marshes. It is an area I have been fascinated with for a while and one I walk to every morning with my dog. more
Kevin Krautgartner
Kevin Krautgartner & Michéla Griffith |
For the ultimate in abstracts, take to the air. From the glacial rivers in Iceland that we have become familiar with to the landscapes of Australia, Kevin Krautgartner’s images show that there is plenty to find and enjoy at a larger scale. more
When Time, and Trees, Stood Still
Joe Cornish |
Although photography is a visual medium I like the idea, or sense, of listening to the trees, of being receptive to their whispering voices. And I heard that there is much to be said for standing still. more
The Plain
Melanie Friend & Charlotte Parkin |
Through my work as a photographer, I have also spent time in different kinds of landscapes; landscapes which are embedded with the aftermath and traces of war (as in Kosovo), or which are marked out as land under military occupation (as in The Plain). more
Lockdown Podcast #12
David Ward, Joe Cornish & Tim Parkin |
The weather is a continual topic of conversation for many living in the British Isles, and for landscape photographers, it becomes something of an obsession. Trying to predict the perfect combination of factors that will give a cloud inversion or a misty woodland or a stunning sunset can be utterly frustrating. more
The Dolomites
Adriana Benetti-Longhini |
The Dolomites are composed of Dolomite rock, a compound of calcium carbonate and magnesium, elements that accentuate the reflectivity of the sun's rays. more
Hiraeth
Alexandra Wesche |
Welsh is spoken by barely 20 percent of the population, so we can only hope that the evocative Welsh word hiraeth will somehow be preserved. It means “distance pain,” and I know all about it: a yearning for the lost places of our past, more

Wow, thank you Hans-Ludwig for your very kind compliment!

A very engaging article and I especially like the image of the collapsed gate. I also think that working in black and white confers a certain timelessness to the images, drawing in the reader more than if they had been in colour.
