Joe Cornish and David Ward Discuss Photos
Last week we ran a webinar with David Ward and Joe Cornish where each photographer chose three of their colleagues images to discuss. The video is now available on You Tube but we've transcribed the content and included the images at higher resolution here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzTMr1JClrU Tim: Hello and welcome to ‘On Landscape’ and we’re here with Joe Cornish and David Ward. David/Joe: Good evening. Tim: And we are doing something fairly new in a way. Normally we’re critiquing other people’s work but you’re more
Harry Callahan Exhibition and Catalog
"I know what you're thinking: 'Did he use two sheets of film or only one?' Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a Deardorff 8x10, the most powerful camera in the world, and would blow your D800E clean away, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do you, punk?" - filed under "Things Harry Callahan might not have said" more
Land|Sea Volume One
editor - Obviously we love Land|Sea but we wanted to put it in the hands of our prospective audience and ask them to give an honest opinion. Paul Arthur fit the bill for a colleague who is always brutally honest (thanks for all those occasions Paul - I think) In the middle months of 2013 I heard rumour of a new book about to break onto the scene, written by a friend I had made very early on in my more
Route 66
Route 66, The Mother Road. Taking in eight states, the route once epitomised the American dream. In the forties and fifties it’s travellers would journey from Chicago in the east to Los Angles in the west. The reason for the journey was the journey itself. The image of Route 66 was its cars, hotels, diners, gas stations and the people that made the experience remarkable. Roll forward more than half a century and things are now very different. In the more
Kyle McDougall
This issue we're featuring Canadian photographer Kyle McDougall who has some beautiful imagery of Ontario and it's surroundings (and more!). If you could also tell us where you live and what you do for a living that would be great. I am a landscape photographer based out of the Muskoka region in Ontario, Canada. For a living I run my own business, which includes work as a cinematographer and editor more
Endframe
I must say, sitting at my desk at work completely absorbed in some unmemorable task, it was a welcome diversion to hear my mobile go ping and then see a message from Tim pop up on the screen. With the message saying ‘favourite image’, my concentration was immediately broken and interest piqued sufficiently to want to see what little morsel of information he was about to divulge. On this occasion though, not information about a great little book he more

On Creativity – Pt 2
Flow was something that happened in my creative life long before I comprehended its significance. Twenty years ago I thought that it was just an odd state that happened from time to time. more
Travelling Light and Working Faster
Travelling lighter? I’m guessing a number of photographers will identify with that - particularly given the ever increasingly popularity of mirror-less CSCs. I think it would be fair to say that not many of us actually enjoy carrying heavy loads up and down hills, or wherever else our photography takes us. But working faster?! That doesn’t sound like something any self-respecting landscape photographer should aspire to, does it? Surely it’s all about working more slowly - losing ourselves in the more
Mirex Adapter for Canon EOS to Sony ‘E’ Mount
Our recent article on the Mirex adapters from Germany sparked a lot of interest with the opportunity to mount medium format lenses on Nikon or Canon SLR cameras. In a little advertised move (you wont find it on the Mirex website) they have produced a tilt/shift adapter from the same stable for mounting EOS mount lenses to Sony ‘E’ mount. This becomes of particular interest to A7/A7R owners who now have access to some very interesting possibilities. http://www.mirex-adapter.de/index.htm The mount more
Charlie Waite Interview
Whilst attending the Year of the Print we were also able to interview Charlie Waite and also Diana Leppard, Charlie's assistant, about the exhibition and the ideas behind it. Tim: Well thank for agreeing to interview first of all about the exhibition. What made you made think about having the year of the “Year of the Print” and an exhibition like this? Charlie: Let's see if I can be coherent. I more
The Year of the Print Exhibition
The idea of a group exhibition where the exhibitors are selected by who has the incentive to put their hand in their pockets and the pictures selected by the same people initially struck me as a recipe for disaster. Without a curatorial control over such an exhibition the end result could have been a mashing together of holidays snaps and works of art; literal representations among ICM madness. So it was with some surprise that I entered the Mall more
The Burn – Jane Fulton Alt
When I first started looking at photos and photo books I vividly remember that visceral thrill of finding a new body of work sparked the imagination and thrilled with the sheer brilliance of seeing and execution. Over time I’ve been encountering this feeling less and less - I still get a thrill from seeing great photography but only a few times a year do I encounter something that reminds me of that original feeling. Jane Fulton Alt’s “The Burn” more
Harvey Lloyd-Thomas
Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? As a child I was always into painting and drawing, along with Lego and later programming my ZX81. I did Art at A Level (along with Maths and Physics) and at one point thought of going on to do an Art Foundation Course, but ended up studying for an engineering degree and then a computing PhD at the University of Bristol. Other than the more
