End frame: Lido di Venezia, 1959 by Gianni Berengo Gardin
Andreas Brink |
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)
Tim Parkin |
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

Brian Uchiyama, Nadav Knaan, Peter Berlinghof & Tom Townsend |
Welcome to our 4x4 feature, which is a set of four mini landscape photography portfolios which has been submitted by Brian Uchiyama, Nadav Knaan, Peter Berlinghof & Tom Townsend. more
Woodland Portraits
Tom Townsend |
Over the last few years, I've become intrigued with the uniqueness and character of trees in various settings and locales, including at times the same set of trees in differing times and weather conditions. more
Siebengebirge
Peter Berlinghof |
Although there are about 50 summits in the area, the present landscape is the result of volcanic activities, which started about 25 million years ago, and of the subsequent erosion of softer materials. more
First Touch of Snow in the Kyrgyz Mountains
Nadav Knaan |
This series captures the extraordinary beauty of Kyrgyzstan's high mountains following the season's first snowfall in October. more
Reflections of a Street Light
Brian Uchiyama |
Living in an urban environment, being surrounded by technology and human made structures has made me contemplate if our own thoughts and actions are an element of wildness itself rather than an opposing force. more
Escaping the Algorithm, Missing the Buzz
Nigel Cooke |
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
Stéphane Jean & Michéla Griffith |
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
Francesco Carovillano |
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
Tom Zimberoff |
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

End frame: The Pond Moonrise by Edward Steichen
Andrew Fusek Peters |
It could be argued that The Pond – Moonlight (1904), taken in Mamaroneck, New York, near the home of his friend Charles Caffin, still stands as his most important early work. more
Jeannet van der Knijff
Jeannet van der Knijff & Michéla Griffith |
I love to be fully immersed in a scene. The process often starts with a documentary image - capturing what’s there. Then follows a kind of dance around the subject or place, trying to find the right angle, the right light, the right depth of field. more
Any Questions, with special guest Paul Kenny
Tim Parkin, Paul Kenny & Mark Littlejohn |
In this episode, Mark and I talk to Paul Kenny about his transition from traditional photography to scanner art, the profound influence of music and nature on his creative process, the emotional connections in art, the challenges of navigating the art world, more
on End frame: The Pond Moonrise by Edward Steichen
I'll echo Geoff's comment below and add that this deeply mysterious scene invites longer exploration and even reflection by the viewer of its effect on him/her.
- Adam Pierzchala, 14:40 yesterdayon A Brief Rant About Film
I used to use colour positive film mainly, then finally, when film I felt that I could use no longer existed, I got dragged kicking and screaming into the digital age. I have even learned to love digital. But I must admit that now each winter I get out my elderly film [...]
