Daniel Cox / Natural Exposures
Daniel Cox is a widely published professional wildlife photography. His Natural Exposures website promotes his wide range of photo tours, but also provides a wealth of writing about wildlife photography and related equipment. In particular he writes at length and in depth about Panasonic Micro Four Thirds cameras and lenses. Generally I’m skeptical about “gear” sites, but this is free of the usual wild self-promotion and bad writing, and provides an excellent free resource for Lumix owners.
Jake Horn is a landscape photographer exclusively using film, in the tradition of Galen Rowel. His web site is clean and uncluttered (yes, I could indeed learn some lessons there) and features some beautiful photography and a whole selection of succinct reviews of cameras, lenses and films. If ever you wondered why anybody would shoot film in 2018, I suggest you take a look here.
The Photo Fundamentalist is the creation of travel / reportage / landscape photographer Tom Stanworth. It features a blend of erudite, entertaining wiring on photography, photographers, books, and, yes a bit of gear. Tom’s photography itself is the centrepiece though, although you you have to dig a bit to find his portfolios. Best find of 2015 so far.
Ira Meyer chronicles the Polar regions through his vivid, romantic photography. His style is full of energy and light, a refreshing change from the gloom and darkness which many seem to want to emphasise in the high latitudes. His latest book, Ice At The Ends of the Earth, has received a well-desrved enthusiastic reception.
Foto4All Magazine is one of the best e-magazines I’ve come across. They publish a very nicely edited monthly PDF magazine, featuring both known and unknown photographers, as well as book reviews, events, history and philosophy of photography. Published in Romania, is has a refreshing perspective on the photographic world. An iPad app “best of” is also available on the Apple App Store.
