What first drew me to Lizzie Shepherd’s Arctic birches at sunset, Lake Tornetrask, were its lovely muted colours. Winter in northern regions is sufficiently devoid of strong colour that we’re tempted to revert to monochrome. more
I think it’s fair to say that only a handful of people consistently take great photographs of the mountains in the UK. For one, the act of getting up into the mountains isn’t trivial. more
I believe Art makes us truly human, or perhaps more accurately, the ability to appreciate the beauty in form, colour, shape and structure of an object, painting, sculpture, or photograph makes us human. It can define who we truly are. more
The thrill of such moments hasn't diminished for me. Whether seeing this misty meadow, the lacey texture of waterfall spray, the glint of Sierra sunlight on granite, or the tapestries of an evening forest, Yosemite has delivered a transcendent experience to me. more
While I think nature photographers can leverage our craft as a means to decompress from our hectic lives, I do think there’s a case to be made for smaller scenes such as the ones Michael is drawn to capture as having more potential as a mechanism for stress reduction. more
This article concerns my long-lasting love affair with a wild meadow next to where I live. Church Meadow lies next to the River Brett in Suffolk. The river meanders through the mid Suffolk countryside, past unspoilt medieval wool villages like Kettlebaston, Chelsworth & Kersey before joining the River Stour on the Essex border in ‘Constable Country’. The river is bordered along much of its route by water meadows. Meadows like more

If you have retained your child-like sense of wonder for snow, then it’s likely that you’ll be enthralled by Jorma’s landscapes from the far north of Finland, which are all the more remarkable for the fact that they are taken during the polar night. more
Picking a photo for Endframe was exquisite torture. There isn’t a photographer I revere above all others. (There are too many to choose from!) Or even one particular favourite ‘go-to’ photo. (Ditto!) And don’t get me started on locations; I could happily wile away an afternoon looking at great landscape images from anywhere on the planet. Thinking about it, I could happily wile away an afternoon looking at great photos on any subject, not just landscapes. Can you see how more
Our 4x4 feature is a set of four mini landscape photography portfolios submitted by: Jesibel A. Fernández, Hans Foks, Jan Erik Waider & Jerome Colombo more
I have a very special relationship with Le Mont Saint-Michel. It's a mix of endless wonder and a feeling of being in a familiar place, like home. more
The infinite shapes and textures of icebergs in Antarctica fascinate me again and again. Every iceberg is unique in its formation, size, and shape. more
I followed Google maps south-wards finding the coast just below Calais in France within a short 4 hour drive. Here the first cliffs shape the coastal landscape bringing rocks, pebbles and bunkers from the Atlantikwall. more
We're hypnotised into wanting to find out what's out there. We look for answers in the dark while forgetting our questions more

It's a tough competition. I really like the way this contest is done and I've said to many that it's really the only landscape photography competition I consider worth entering. Although I didn't get as far as I did last year in the judging, I'm happy that you counted one of [...]

Really super issue this month. Alex Nail’s book looks great. And “Sensual” and “Cast in Stone” by Mark James Ford are ridiculously good. Inspirational stuff. Thanks Tim & Charlotte!

Wise choice Gary! Lizzie’s work is superb and a masterclass in fine art photography. We need to convince her to visit eastern Canada :) Also, I hope to see your work published in this magazine, too. It is also thoughtful, evocative, and unique. As I’m writing this we still have the [...]
