Navigating the Currents of Art and Science

Print Your Legacy
We are living in a golden era for photography and printing. If you can dream it, you can make it - at a reasonable cost. more
Sea
One of my favourite images in the book is of Roker Pier. Not because it’s technically my best, or because it’s sold well, but because of the memory it holds. After Mum’s diagnosis, when she could still walk, I took her to places she’d never been. more
Flowerscapes
Foxglove (digitalis), photographed along the road near Garderen, the Netherlands. Thanks to the spots on the inside of the flower, bumblebees and bees are lured into the flowers to snack on the nectar. A couple of months ago, my new photo book, Flowerscapes. A Bug’s Eye View was published. A book that - as the title reveals - is entirely dedicated to our wildflowers, photographed from more
Walking in the Shadow of Middle Earth
As with many aspects of myth and history, there are contrasting beliefs and political nuances that often clash when attempting to anchor Tolkien's world to specific real-world locations. more
The Wyre Forest
What the next iteration or chapter of WYRE will be remains to be seen. Recently, I’ve been drawn more to the areas around the forest. more
From Across the Ravine
Most trees demand more than one meeting to make their best photograph, and, just as with people, sometimes the truest friends are not the ones who dazzle you at first but the ones who invite you to keep looking and listening. 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. We asked him a few questions about the project. Can you give us a short summary of how you found yourself on the verge of going to print with more
Slow photography on Öland
Öland is a place for slow photography, almost meditative photography; it’s about space and time. It is here that I live my photography. more
After The Tide
At 354 km, the River Severn is Britain's longest river, winding its serpentine route from the hills of Plymlimon in Wales to the Bristol Channel, gathering countless tributaries along the way. more
Blåtone
Diptych as an art form traces back to antiquity. Art a thousand years ago was something different from today and served another function. more
A Year at Duncansby, 2022
Looking forward, I questioned what the solution was. I’ve never been a planner, so even that question put me in uncharted territory. I’ve never thought about doing a project, but that quickly sprang to mind, but what? more
Les Bisses du Valais
God the Father, on a visit to the Valais in the company of St. Peter, offered the Valaisans who complained about the retreat of the glaciers and the aridity of their climate, to take care of the problem of water if they wished. St. Peter saw that the locals were hesitating, and encouraged them to accept the offer, telling them that God himself was a Valaisan. Was it this remark that got them thinking? In any case, they declined more
An Extremely Un-get-atable Place
A new book by British photographer Craig Easton is a lyrical reimagining of the time George Orwell lived on the Isle of Jura, where he wrote Nineteen Eighty-four. A kickstarter campaign runs until 6th June, offering reduced price signed books and exclusive prints. more
The Alternative ‘Movement’
