Stories from the Land
Jem Southam is critically regarded as one of the most important British photographers of the last twenty five years. Working with a 10x8 view camera and colour negative film, his patient pursuit of his art seems at odds with the frenetic pace of life in the 21st Century. He predominantly works in South West of England, often returning to the same location time and time again to record subtle variations in the landscape, how it changes during the seasons and exploring more
Seduced by Art – Photography Past & Present
A visit to London this weekend with my parents-in-law took me to a few different exhibitions. The Ansel Adams exhibition has already been reviewed so I’ll be writing instead about the “Seduced By Art: Photography Past and Present” exhibition at the Sainsbury Wing of the National Gallery as well as “Constable, Gainsborough, Turner and the Making of Landscape” at the Royal Academy. The Seduced by Art exhibition’s primary purpose is to look into the ways that the themes, subjects and more
An Icelandic Adventure
I love Iceland! There you go I’ve said it. It’s a new love affair, and one which I feel very strongly about, but I have to admit, that it has never been particular high on my list of locations to visit. It’s an almost reckless statement as there is a truly astounding volume of excellent work that has been produced from this small frozen island over the last few years. It’s become a Mecca for landscape photographers, a ‘Do more
Joe Cornish – Reader’s Questions
Just before Christmas we asked our readers for a bunch of questions that we could put to Joe Cornish when he visited next and the response was fantastic. In the end we recorded two hours of audio but to keep installments to a useful length (a lot of people say they listen to them over breakfast or during a commute) we’ve split it into half hour sections. So, a big thank you to Joe and everyone who submitted their questions and here’s more
The Great Analogue Conundrum
What I would urge the solely digital users to think about are the benefits of learning to use film. The disciplines it brings. more
Lizzie Shepherd
Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? A little background on what your first passions were, what you studied and what job you ended up doing. I come from a large family – all creative and musical, with a love of the outdoor life. Summer holidays were usually spent camping in Scotland, Wales, the Alps, often in the rain... I was an avid collector of things from the natural world more

CamRanger Preview
Ever since the retina iPhone and especially the iPad came out people have wondered about (lusted after!) the ability to tie them directly to the preview, or preferably the live view, of their cameras. This is particularly true for landscape photographers where the taking and composing of the image is usually a more sedate affair allowing for meticulous attention to detail. Well we might just have seen the democratisation of more
Hans Strand – Part One
Hans Strand is one of the most well known European landscape photographers and has travelled extensively around the world capturing images from the deserts of America to the Tasmanian outback. I first saw Hans' work in "The World's Top Photographers" and have followed his work since then, especially his Iceland work which must have a played a part in the countries current place in the landscape photographer zeitgeist. We talked to Hans via Skype - apologies in advance for more
Hans Strand – Part Two
Here we have part two of our Hans Strand interview where we ask him some questions submitted by our readers and also talk to him about a selection of images. Hans talks about his books, preference for black and white, working in cold weather, compares the D800 and Hasselblad digital and much more... Tim: We’re here with On Landscape again, with some questions for Hans Strand. Hello Hans. First question from Paul Morton, who asks if you are getting any more

Magnus Lindbom
This month we're featuring a colleague of Hans Strand's - Magnus Lindbom. Sweden has some fantastic landscapes and we'd like to feature more photographers that are making the most of it. I've seen Magnus' work for some time and hope you enjoy his work as much as I do. Can you tell me a little about your education, childhood passions, early exposure to photography and vocation? I grew up close to nature. Spending summers sailing along the archipelago of the east more
