Creating and using the creative qualities that lie within us make us better people. Being creative is something universal in us, and if this does not get an outlet through photography or other creative activities, it will be forced to find an outlet in another way. more
Technology advance and evolutionary adaptation or why it is all about harmony (for me)
Here, I would like to pick up on one of those themes, expressed by Vilém Flusser (1920-1991) back in pre-digital days, about how, as photographers, we are all (to a greater or lesser extent) functionaries in the development of the photographic industry as part of the capitalist technological industrial complex. more
Desert: sand, dunes and intangible vastness
This region became famous through travelogues such as “Arabian Sands” or “The Wells of the Desert” by Sir Wilfred Thesiger (1910 - 2003). He was one of the first Europeans to cross this desert between 1947 and 1950. more
Marc Wilson, The Edge of Ruin
We interviewed Marc Wilson at the Royal Armouries way back in 2013 when he was out promoting his Last Stand book on the relics of wars. He's currently promoting a Kickstarter campaign to help in the publication a new and predominantly landscape project about the relics of our industrial past.

I have circled back to Marianthi’s work regularly over the last decade or so, not in the sense of moving backwards to something in the past, but each time I visit her new work or revisit pieces I am already familiar with, I feel a new sense of discovery, as if I am uncovering an aspect of myself previously unknown to me. more

End frame: L’Éclipse by Eugène Atget
There is something immediately appealing about Eugène Atget’s 1912 albumen silver print L’Éclipse—a sense of spontaneity, playfulness, and ease with which the Parisian photographer pulls us right into the center of the crowd that gathered on Place de la Bastille to observe a solar eclipse. more
Albanian Canyons
The most exciting and most exotic destination for me was Albania. Although this country has been gaining increasing attention in recent years—primarily because of its beautiful beaches and low prices—it remains quite an unspoiled land, with few landscape photographers appearing to have an interest in it. more
