Personal Style
When I write about photography, I do so from my own perspective and based on my own experiences throughout my ongoing development.

Earth Stands Still
Nils Karlson’s photography mines a popular seam of creativity, the liquid horizon. That unearthly split between liquid and gaseous holds a mirror up to light, weather and flow. more

A Photographer’s Life
All of this story is told by way of a series of anecdotes in this Rocky Nook publication. more

Angela Chalmers
Angela is a visual artist based in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, who uses painting, printmaking and photography to explore the themes that interest her. more
The Journey of the Autumn Leaves
For nature and landscape photographers autumn is obviously also a great season, offering all kind of possibilities for moody and colourful pictures. But it is not so easy to make something new out it. more
The Three-Dimensioned Life
As viewers, we may not care, but as creators, I believe that this should be of primary importance and consideration in our creative (and professional) choices. more
