The Coast – Various Arena Photographers
Various book reviews: Tony Worobiec, Trevor Crone, Paul Mitchell, Eva Worobiec & Susan Brown more
Interview with Paul Mitchell
Paul Mitchell and a few other Photographer's have put together a book called "The Coast" about the English coastline and when we visited at Burnham Beeches we interviewed him about it. We were surrounded by lots of barking dogs and screaming kids so it might jump subject now and then... :-) So what is the book Paul? The book is a collection of images taken on the coast hence the title “The Coast”. We wanted to keep it pretty much to more
Nigel Clarke
This issue we're featuring a photographer local to both myself and Joe - Nigel Clarke also went on a one to one workshop with me to discover the pleasure and pain of large format photography. Since then he's been delving into platinum palladium too, to great effect. Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? Much of my education has been more
Joe Cornish – Readers Questions
Just before Christmas we asked our readers for a bunch of questions that we could put to Joe Cornish when he visited next and the response was fantastic. In the end we recorded two hours of audio but to keep installments to a useful length (a lot of people say they listen to them over breakfast or during a commute) we've split it into half hour sections. So, a big thank you to Joe and everyone who submitted their questions and here's more
Get organised!
A common problem that people encounter once they have been using their digital cameras for any length of time is how best to store and organise the sheer number of images they are producing. After a while, the sort of structure that grows organically with the enthusiasm for photography becomes difficult to handle. What seemed logical to begin with quickly starts to get confusing and can cause more problems than it solves. Fortunately there are some simple guiding principles you more
Judge Dread
We were chatting with Stephen Byard who judges in clubs in the North of England and into Southern Scotland and were interested in what he thought judging was about to give us an inside track. Here was his response.. In the aftermath of the furore of the 2012 Landscape Photographer of the Year, with other landscape photographers posting me their thoughts and questions on the winner, and the, er, second winner, an interesting one ticker-taped its way into my day from more
Michael Kenna Exhibition Overview
Although David Ward has already reviewed the Michael Kenna exhibition in terms of Kenna as a photographer and his pictures, I thought it would be good to add an overview of the exhibition itself and my own reaction to it. My experience of Michael Kenna up until this point has been through browsing his website a few times, a first glance at his retrospective that I bought a more
Ansel Adams Exhibition
It was about four years ago when we had the chance to see the Ansel Adams exhibition, “Celebration of a Genius” which was hosted by Edinburgh and Wolverhampton. The images included in this exhibition were a cross section of his life’s work from the George Eastman House, Rochester and showed a good profile of the types of work Ansel was famous for and some more personal work such as portraits etc. Later the same year there was an exhibition more
Enter the Dragon – Part1
Drakensberg from Mikes Pass I saw pictures of the Drakensberg mountain range in South Africa twenty five years ago. The skyline of spectacular peaks and exotically-fertile foothills made a big impression, as did the evocative name (Dragon's mountains). So I didn't need persuading when Denis Hocking, friend and long term South African aficionado, suggested a trip for November of this year. His main interest was more
Michael Kenna Exhibition
Personally, I have no desire to copy Kenna because I feel we should all try and find our own path - although we all inevitably stand on the shoulders of giants. more
Beata Moore
This issue Surrey based Beata Moore has answered our usual questions on issues from women in photography to book publishing Benagil caves, Portugal Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? I have been passionate about photography since the age of twelve, the time I received my first camera. However, I have been around cameras as long as more
Walking with Giants, Tour de Mont Blanc
Introduction I recently wrote an article discussing the range of options available to the serious walker & landscape photographer (Travelling Light). In the article I extolled the virtues of the current crop of mirrorless cameras and their suitability for long distance walking. I recently completed the Tour de Mont Blanc (TMB) over a 2 week period covering a distance of approximately 200km and 10000m of ascent (and descent !) staying in a mixture of huts and hotels. It has more

David Clapp
We visited David Clapp a couple of weeks ago and spent a day wandering around the lakes. When we woke on the Sunday to some atrocious weather we decided it would be a good opportunity to interview David about his recent activities, the reasons for him being in the lakes and about what he'll be doing for On Landscape over the next year. First though a few pictures that are referenced in the video. In the middle of the video more
