SUBMIT YOUR ASPEN PHOTOS
In this issue I’ve written an article extending my previous group of articles on trees with a feature on Quaking Aspen. To follow up with this, we’re going to be featuring readers’ photographs on the subject in a couple of issues time, so if you have any photographs of Aspen you’d like to include, please send them to us at submissions@onlandscape.co.uk. Don’t forget your country and state for a caption.
SEND QUESTIONS FOR BEN HORNE
While you’re thinking about submitting things, we have an interview with Ben Horne on our Any Questions podcast in the next week so please send us any questions you’d like to ask. Ben has a slow photograph style where he works with a 10x8 large format film camera and produces a tiny fraction of the amount of work other photographers do, and yet still brings back amazing photos! Questions to the same place please, . Don’t forget your country and state for a caption..
Joe Cornish was up in the Highlands with us last week, and we managed to get out and take a few photographs in the valley behind the Pap of Glencoe (the geologically special river bed behind the Glencoe caldera I’ve mentioned in a previous editorial). Stupidly, I recharged my batteries overnight and totally forgot to pick them up on the way out, so my contribution is courtesy of my iPhone 15 in live mode with a bit of long exposure effect.

End frame: Lido di Venezia, 1959 by Gianni Berengo Gardin
The photograph invites questions without offering answers. Who are these people? A couple with their child? Relatives? Domestics of a wealthy Venetian family? What are their thoughts? more
Aspen (Poplar Tremuloides)
The Aspen is a real treasure of a tree species from North America. I should probably be more specific and say that Quaking Aspen (Populus tremuloides) is a real treasure, as although we have Aspen across Europe, it is the European Aspen (Populus tremula). (There are also aspen in Asia, different species in Korea and China, which I will mention briefly later.) more
4×4 Landscape Portfolios

Escaping the Algorithm, Missing the Buzz
I think we have all become tired of it. The algorithms, the endless tweaking of hashtags, and the feeling that our creativity was being filtered through a faceless server farm— the gatekeeper who decides if our work is worthy of being seen. more
Stéphane Jean
In the beginning, the outcome was definitely my main focus at all times, but being more seasoned and confident now, allowing myself to relax and better tune in with my surroundings, I’d say that it has become about equal in importance to the experience. more
Past Masters: Hudson River School, the detail and the whole
The Hudson River School’s artists viewed nature as a manifestation of the divine and strove to represent it as faithfully as possible, until different painters brought their own artistic vision and influences, which at times created interesting contrasting philosophies. more
A Brief Rant About Film
Once, as a society, we cherished the “Kodak Moment,” a marketing masterstroke that now feels quaint, a victim of what I’ll call photobesity: a deluge of snapshots made so mindlessly and frequently that they’ve devolved into pullulating yottabytes of digital dross. more
