End frame: The Ladies of Granston by Chris Tancock
Chris Tancock is a photographer living and working in Pembrokeshire, quite close to where I live. Whilst Chris photographs in the landscape, and often his images include wildlife, “traditional” landscape and wildlife photography are genres that he doesn’t particularly warm to. Chris prefers to describe himself as a “rural documentary” or “habitat” photographer. Moreover, he regards himself as a story teller, however, he fails to see how a single image can tell a story.

Traveling Trees
It all began one misty morning nearly ten years ago, as I meandered on the still-wet sand of Nehalem Bay on the Oregon coast. It was low tide, and as the shroud of fog began to thin, it revealed a long array of brooding, sculptural forms deposited at the farthest edge of the water line. more
End frame: The Old Pond by Krister Berg
The viewer’s eye is drawn to a solitary water lily in the lower right corner of the image. It is then guided horizontally toward the bright grass on the left and follows a gentle upward path toward the water lily leaves, which are thoughtfully distributed across the lower branch silhouette. more
End frame: The”Awakening Dragon” by Alister Benn
When I look at the Awakening Dragon, I might or might not know anything about where and when the photo was taken, what Alister had in mind, what mood he was in, or what was going on in his life. It doesn't matter to me as a viewer. more
Direct to Plate Photogravure
After success with carbon ink printing by Cone Editions, I noticed they had a lot of photogravure classes and I was curious. How would photogravure compare to carbon ink? Does it look different? Would it get more attention? Is it more durable? more
End frame: Ash tree, Balmacara by Colin Prior
In this autumnal palette, death does not mean the end but a transformation. The ash resists mourning its loss and does not shrink from its bareness. The elder stands with a quiet confidence, unshaken, an echo of strength. more

My love for the Scottish landscape and its remote locations is, for me, better represented using a variety of darkroom processes and papers, than being a perfect HD colour image. more
End frame: Papaver Nudicale by Tine Poppe
The flowers, just past their peak and beginning to wilt, are set against the smoky, foggy and greyed landscape backgrounds, which evoke the tumult and terror of Romantic era painters working in nature’s Sublime. more
End frame: Big Horn Sheep and Mesa Arch, Canyonlands National Park by Whit Richardson
On the day Whit made this image, he arrived early and photographed sunrise from these more conventional perspectives. After some time close to the arch, he walked farther back to experiment with compositions at a distance. more
Exploring Sumi-E
These three techniques—Sumi-e, Negative Space, and black-and-white photography—have inspired a series of images that can really only be created during snow-rich winters. more
Photographing in Fiordland National Park of New Zealand
It's the being here that does this for me, tucked away in a very small corner of the most wonderful part of the planet, deep in the very heart of Te Wahipounamu, 'Fiordland National Park' in the South West of New Zealand. more
End frame: Nuevo Laredo, Mexico 1996, by Alex Webb
I have long admired this image, and it was the first one, not a landscape image, that popped into my mind after reading Charlotte's invite. more
End frame: Alaskan Arctic Circle in spring, Caribou wandering in a herd by Michio Hoshino
One evening following dinner in the cook shack at the Alaska McNeil River State Game Sanctuary and Refuge, Michio Hoshino showed me a prepublication book of his photographs. more
End Frame: Autumn Delta by Magnus Lindbom
The photograph I have chosen as the subject of this article, “Autumn Delta” by Magnus Lindbom, speaks to us as much of its creator as the ephemeral beauty of the landscape he has captured. more
