The Collaborative Photographer
Photography, at least in the way I practice is, is a complete solitary endeavour, and in fact, that is one of the things that attract me the most about it. more
Landscape and Abstraction
My assertion, “landscape lacks a ‘subject’” must be debatable; perhaps that is why the lone tree remains a hardy perennial for landscape photographers, for the apparent isolation of the tree lends it a presence and also an inherent storyline (loneliness, resilience against the elements, confidence etc). more
ETTR in the Age of the Modern Sensor
We had a recent email from a reader asking whether we should still be using ‘expose to the right’ when modern sensors have such a large dynamic range. more
Richard Earney
The Warped Topographies project has crystallised in my mind that I prefer a more abstract form of photography, but it’s also reignited my interest in older and alternative processes. more

Limitations and constraints in photography
Many are the individuals who have praised the beneficial effects of limitations and constraints in the creative process. more
Tales of a Wandering Photographer
As with any journey, each is unique, the options unlimited and we each choose our own route. They all differ and there is no right or wrong. It’s a very personal thing. more
Featured Photographer
Our lives are circumscribed in so many ways. Photography offers us complete freedom so why impose boundaries on ourselves when all they do is to provide an excuse to keep on doing the same old thing? more
