Masters of Landscape Photography
Landscape photography is one of the most popular genres for amateur photographers, with countless competitions and awards heavily subscribed by enthusiasts and professionals keen to pitch their work against their peers. 

Beyond the competitors is an even larger community of landscape photographers, who can be found tramping through the wilderness in search of their next great shot, ready to sit for hours until the light is just right. However, mastering the genre takes time to perfect exposure, color, composition, and, above all else, the ability to see and record the landscape in a way that will make your photographs stand above the rest. To set you on the path to success, Masters of Landscape Photography delves into the world of 16 leading lights, each with their unique take on how, where, and why the landscape should be recorded. 

Included in the book:

  • Probing Q&A style interviews
  • Beautifully reproduced images
  • Captions telling the story of each picture 
  • Detailed technical information

The reader is given an insight into the artist's working practices, from their equipment to their techniques to create breath-taking and visionary works. In this lavishly illustrated title, glorious color photographs sit beside atmospheric monochrome, the latest digital techniques rub shoulders with traditional film-based imaging, and conventional landscape mores are countered by experimental artworks, guaranteeing something to inspire the reader, no matter their landscape persuasion. 

Contributing artists include Marc Adamus, Valda Bailey, Sandra Bartocha, Mark Bauer, Thierry Bornier, Jonathan Chritchley, Joe Cornish, Ross Hoddinott, Daniel Kordan, Mikko Lagerstedt, Tom Mackie, David Noton, Colin Prior, Hans Strand, Lars Van De Goor, Art Wolfe.
