End Frame – Early Morning, Merced River by Ansel Adams
When asked if I'd be interested in writing an End Frame article, two favourite landscape images immediately came to mind. Of the two, one I've only become aware of relatively recently (although the image itself is much older), but the other I've known for what must be around twenty years now (although again the image is much older), so I decided it really had to be this image that I write about. So, in the genre of landscape photography, Ansel more

Joe Cornish & Charlie Waite
Part 2 of our interview of Joe Cornish & Charlie Waite by Steve Watkins (editor of Outdoor Photography). Steve: What I’d like to discuss is landscape photography in its broadest sense, but also look at some of the practice of landscape photography and what influences Joe and Charlie have had. I’d also like to touch on the future and where it is all going, because by the time we leave here, landscape photography will have changed, with another 20,000 photographs uploaded more
Alaska: Breaking Up Is So Hard To Do
There was a loud knock. It was barely light, and after exchanging glances with my wife I put down my half-chewed bagel, smothered in peanut butter, and went over to the campervan door. Standing there in the gloom was a young man, thin with a pasty white face under a red checkered baseball cap, hands thrust deep into his blue denims. In a sullen southern drawl he said: “Just gonna do some shootin’ here, hope you don’t mind, didn’t want more
Joe Blogs – “One day my Prints will come”
It may be a sign of the times that this year my schedule has included four workshops that were either dedicated to printing, or that have had a significant component of printing in them. (Prior to this year there have been no such workshops). It could be too that only now am I feeling confident enough to lead such an enterprise, or that Light and Land's branding of 2014 as 'the Year of the Print' has something to do more

Joe Cornish and Charlie Waite
During the recent "Year of the Print" exhibition organised by Charlie Waite there were a couple of discussion talks with Steve Watkins, Editor of Outdoor Photography, as compere. The topic was open and questions came from audience members and social media. Here is the first of these talks - the second will be published in the next issue. Audience: What is the secret of a great photograph? Joe: Well I’m not sure if there is a secret. There is a great more

Assynt & Quiraing
Introduction Among hill-walkers and climbers there is a fairly keen appreciation of the correct names of Scotland’s mountain regions and the hills which lie within them. Having come to landscape photography from such a background, I have found that the names used to describe some of our most photographed places are often at odds with long-standing place-name tradition. In this article I have highlighted a couple of examples of very well-photographed places where a lot of confusion seems to have more

Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? I was born in Sheffield. My Dad was a newspaper editor, my Mum a mother and housewife. Dad worked all hours in his office in the city centre, but I preferred being outdoors and as our back garden opened out into woodland, that’s where I remember spending my childhood when I wasn’t at school. We then moved to the edge of the Peak more

A few years ago I was in Edinburgh when the G8 summit was held there. A widespread good-humoured protest rally marched through the city. One group that caught my eye was the one in skeleton costumes carrying banners that said “Save the planet – join the Mass Suicide Movement!”. I couldn't help smiling and thinking that this was unlikely to be a successful political campaign… even though you could see that from an ecosystem perspective, they had a point. more
End Frame – Reflection, Orsjon by Jan Tove
I must admit to a bit of guilt after seeing the responses of Julian Barkway and Joe Wright to my proposed End Frame request. more
