Going Back to the Beach – A Four Year Photographic Journey
One of my favourite books is ‘Zen and the art of archery’. It explains how something hard can become seemingly effortless once you have repeated the process over and over again. For me that is the basis of most of my work – and the main way of thinking during my 4 years working on a single beach – Poppit Sands.

Photographer Showcase – Dave Hill
I’m a huge fan of Dave Hill and the “Dave Hill Look”. He creates such a great feel to his images. Some say its through HDR imaging, however according to Dave its not. He explains that he achieves his look through lighting first then Photoshop. I would agree with the lighting claim because of the fact that many people have tried to achieve his look solely through post production methods and some come close but they still don’t fully capture Dave’s style.

Get Exposed: User Submitted Showcases
Most of you probably have noticed our community portfolio, where you can join and submit your latest and greatest work. We want to take this a step further by proposing a photographic theme, either weekly or biweekly, where you submit your most creative photographic interpretation of said theme. This won’t be a contest per say however we will review the submissions and hand pick a group to publish in a showcase article. With thousands of views per day, this will be great exposure for the selected photographers. Each showcased image will have the photographers flickr name and a link to the image.

Jane Fulton Alt’s latest photographic series is a commentary on the horrible BP disaster. While not directly affected by the spill, Jane still captures the impact the spill is having on the lives of so many people. Jane’s powerful images not only depict the spill but also is trying to open our eyes to the fact that BP is not the only guilty party here. We all have oil on our hands.

Photographer Showcase – Wayne Martin Belger
Wayne Martin Belger has created one of the most unique bodies of work I have seen. The way he mixes the art of sculpture, fabrication and pinhole photography is quite mind boggling to say the least. Some might be shocked or even horrified be some of his work, you have been warned.
