Jeff Freestone – Portrait of a Photographer
Others use photography as a vehicle through which they may find a greater purpose for themselves and discover a means of personal artistic expression. more
QT Luong – Portrait of a Photographer
QT Luong was the first person to photograph all 62 National Parks, an impressive feat on its own right; however, he did so with a large format film camera. more
Jackson Frishman – Portrait of a Photographer
Over the past several years I have had the pleasure of being introduced time and time again to the excellent photographic artwork of Jackson Frishman, as he’s been recommended to me by so many excellent former guests of my podcast, including Sarah Marino & Ron Coscorossa. There are several interesting themes that I’ve been able to piece together over the years regarding Jackson and his work that have always intrigued me and so more
Luke Tscharke – Portrait of a Photographer
Having never been to Australia myself, I found myself really intrigued by the variety of scenes, compositions, and climates that Luke has been able to photograph there. more
Jerry Greer – Portrait of a Photographer
Jerry’s new project, “Dust to Dust” focuses on the impacts on both the natural environment of the region as well as the impacts to the built environment and the various intersections of each. more
Metaphysics & the Rückenfigur
The reason that I’ve approached the photograph in this way is that it reminds me so much of one of the masterpieces of German Romanticism, Caspar David Friedrich’s Wanderer over the Sea of Fog (1818 more
Brent Doerzman – Portrait of a Photographer
He’s an absolute master at determining what to include or exclude in the frame, which is in my opinion one of the most challenging things a landscape photographer must learn to do. more
Darkness in the Deep South
The camera is a recording tool: mechanical, technical, objectifying. The photographer is a subjective cypher: selecting, emphasising, interpreting. The bringing together of these antithetical poles can lead to an artistic fusion that is evocative and profound. more
Tara Workman – Portrait of a Photographer
I am also impressed with her bravery in pursuing and sharing images where the subject may be out of focus or where no compositional rules are followed. more
Chris Murray – Portrait of a Photographer
Chris weaves stories and narratives through each image and adds just enough mystery (or perhaps leaves just enough out) to keep the viewer engaged for a long period of time. more
Wayne Suggs – Portrait of a Photographer
Wayne and another photographer by the name of Mike Groves were instrumental in the creation of the Organ Mountain Desert Peaks National Monument. more
Turning Back from the Edge of the World
Overall the mood is quite dark and brooding. There is even a sense of melancholia, particularly if we bring our knowledge of these deserted, abandoned islands to the image itself. At St Kilda and Boreray we have reached the end of the world but we are not welcome. more
Jennifer Renwick – Portrait of a Photographer
I decided to focus on the artwork of a photographer who has long inspired me, not only because her photographs are powerful, evocative, and unique, but because she is one heck of an amazing person and a fabulous steward of the natural places we all cherish. more
Joel Truckenbrod – Portrait of a Photographer
I do not think that nature and landscape photography always need to evoke positive emotions and I love the fact that Joel’s work can evoke both positive and negative emotions and feelings. more
Pastel Mirrors in the Unreal Landscape
This is not the ‘beauty of the banal’ often associated with the New Topographics, but nor is it the grandiose statements of the straight photographers. Instead of metaphorically pointing dramatically at what is being seen, Cody’s images reflect on what the photographer has felt in the landscape. more
