Thomas Peck’s Critiques
Landscape photography is a slight misnomer, in that a large number of landscape photographs have as their subject not land but water. Or at least they take the interaction between water and land as a starting point for their imagery. more

Diego Lopez
Sometimes an image pops up in your feed that stops you in your tracks. For me, this happened recently with an abstract by Spanish photographer Diego Lopez and judging by the reaction when I reshared it, the same was true for many others. more
Has colour photography finally come of age?
It’s almost 190 years since Nicéphore Niépce made the first light-fast photographic image. That image was monochrome but I’m not sure that modern photographers understand how recently colour photography became widespread or how radically things have improved in the last ten years. more
Beyond the Visual: Sound, Word and Landscape.
I've long believed that for my work, seeing by itself is insufficient to create a good photograph. Whereas visual skills are essential, they are only a part of the contribution we can make as individuals or artists to our photography. The real skill of the visual is translating whatever it is we're trying to say into images; an extra level that might go some way to communicating our intent. Beyond seeing lies the murky, complex world of ideas, motivation, more
Issue 104 PDF
Tis the season to be jolly - and also the season to convince ourselves that we deserve to buy ourselves a few gadgets to play with in the new year. Some of my little treats include a load of darkroom equipment from one of our contributors David Tolcher and another treat is going to see Star Wars. Interestingly both of these have something in common - they both are driven by the resurgence of interest in film. Star Wars more
When is a Cliché not a Cliché
This article isn't composed of my own solid definition. As a photographer I'm trying to come to my own conclusions about how photography works and what tools we have to play with. I'd be very interested in your own thoughts on this. In the last article, I talked about how the cliché is not in the subject itself but the approach that a photographer takes in photographing that subject and that true artists can use clichés as positive components in more
Healing
And so after feeling that my time at Thirlmere had come to a natural conclusion I decided to make Holme Fell and Hodge Close Quarry my area of discovery for 2015. Located between Ambleside and Coniston, although closer to the latter, it was really convenient for me to get to from our little bolthole at Skelwith Fold more

Endframe: “Reflect on Autumn” by Mark Lakeman
Working my way across the country, from Dartmoor to Yorkshire hosting the Canon GPS Days with Tim, I would have given anything to substitute the damp and grey for a few seconds of a golden viewfinder, especially in the New Forest where the colours were exceptional. more
Dorin Bofan
Over time, his interpretations of that which he sees are becoming more closely attuned with his vision of the world. Photography is important, but the experience of being out amid nature is even more so. more
One Direction
For some reason landscape photographers, including myself, tend to spend way to much time trying to find the extraordinary. The urge is often to find a place where we can take a photograph with a “wow factor”. more

Turning a New Leaf
For what seems all too brief, the end of October and beginning of November heralds the time that trees withdraw their sap from the green leaves to reveal carotenoids and anthocyanins. more
