Back in Iceland this week, with the second part of a travelogue series to cover my first tour there a few weeks ago, from August 25 to September 5, 2013. We had an amazing time, with beautiful light and beautiful scenery, and a great group to travel with. It turned...
From August 25 to September 5, 2013, I ran my first Iceland Photography Tour with Tim Vollmer. From today for a few weeks, I'm going to walk you through the tour with the aid of photographs selected from my final edit, which is 50 images. It was a tight edit as usual,...
Today I'm going to walk you through my data backup strategies at home and in the field. This is in response to a listener question from someone that heard me talking about this briefly on This Week in Photo. I should precede this with the disclaimer that I'm perhaps a...
Hi folks! By the time I release this, I'll be starting my Iceland tour with Tim Vollmer and 14 passionate photographers. It doesn't get much better than this! Anyway, while I'm away, I wanted to share a recent interview that fellow TWiP co-host Darlene...
It's sometimes necessary to create prints on media sizes different to that of the final print. For example, you might need to print an 11 x 17" print but only have 13 x 19" media. Or you might use a large format printer and roll media, and don't want to foot the cost...

I recently took delivery of two new types of paper and a new canvas from Breathing Color, and having profiled and worked with them over the last few weeks, today I'm going to discuss some of the attributes of these new media types and how I'm going to be introducing...
Once again I'm going to reply to a listener question this week, this time a question from listener Fred Kotler about when and how I use my tripods. I thought this would be a good chance to take a look at my current support line-up, and discuss a little about why I...
On May 4, before I left for Namibia, I released a quick video Podcast (episode 371) to walk you through my preparation for the trip. In that video I said that I'd let you know if anything didn't go according to plan, and in general everything went really well, but...
