Graduated Filter Test – Part Five
Tim Parkin | Posted
It was pointed out by a couple of readers that I’d missed a couple of tests that they would have liked to have seen. These were a ‘scratch resistance’ test and a vignetting test. Whilst I didn’t foresee these changing the results really, I was keen to include them. I also promised a short video on each filter to demonstrate some of the usability issues I’d talked about in the last issue. Skip this section if you just want more
End frame: One-way bridge at Trafalgar, by Fay Godwin
Roger Backhouse | Posted

Buried in the Rocks
Amy Warren | Posted
On the afternoon of the 2nd of February 2018, I witnessed an accident which truly shaped my practice as a photographer. This incident, which will forever hold a place in my mind, had a strong influence on a recent project - ‘Buried in the Rocks’ and became the first location I shot for the project. more
The quests of landscape photography
Theodor Paues | Posted
What motivates a landscape photographer to do what he or she does? What is the drive that makes the photographer pick up a camera and walk into nature, sometimes at ungodly hours of the day and in testing weather? more
Skye – Away from the Madding Crowds
Tim Parkin | Posted
Living as we do in Ballachulish, we often hear news from the Isles, and particularly Skye, that they are overcrowded with tourists. It reached a fever pitch last year with CNN Travel listing Skye as one of their places to “avoid” and the police “advised visitors to stay away unless they had already booked places to stay”.

on The quests of landscape photography
Hi Theodor, Great article! I agree that landscape photography is way too much about showing beauty. The same recipe across the board. This way of depiction is very predictable and most images end up looking more or less the same. Personally I am totally fed up looking at sunsets.
