End frame: “The Labyrinth” by Peter Dombrovskis
Then I asked myself why I was searching for a favourite image when it has been hanging on the wall for the past 10 or 15 years — and I’m still not tired of it! It’s “The Labyrinth” by Tasmanian wilderness photographer Peter Dombrovskis. more

Pathos on Shetland
This set of images, from my current researches, were taken on a trip to Shetland, in March this year. They are examples of where my motivation for taking the image is that I have perceived pathos, isolation, a feeling of being left behind in such human constructions. more
Val d’Orcia – Tuscany
These images are a small part of a job that lasted a whole year. I live in Tuscany but not really near the Val d'Orcia. more
The High Moor
I was travelling in middle France, searching for inspirational places, as there are many highlands there. I eventually came across these ones, they were one of the most isolated areas I've ever seen in this country, apart from the high mountains like the Pyrenees or the Alps. I more

Skye – off the beaten track
In April, Tim and I went to the Isle of Skye for two days to see if we could get away from the madding crowds (even on a busy Bank holiday).

Graduated Filter Test – Part Five (Bonus!)
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
It is a beautifully balanced image. And then what makes the image for me is that the darkness under the bridge frames an image that is complete in itself—another view of the railway line overshadowed by another slender tree. more
