Tim Parkin has discovered landscape photography at a late age and is trying his best to make up for lost time. After a year spent with a digital SLR, his 40th birthday was a trip to the Hebrides in a viking long house with David Ward and Richard Childs (two of the best landscape photographers in the UK). The large format obsession that infected him over that week has culminated in a recent exhibit of one of his pictures at the National Theatre as part of the Landscape Photographer of the Year awards. Tim is looking forward to what surprises his third year in photography has in store. If you want to learn more about what makes Tim tick, you can read his blog and also a brief summary career history and path to landcape photographer in the about section.

I've been posting lots of articles and have just created an index of them which you can view here. Landscape Photographer Articles

Images will soon be available for sale directly through the website. In the interim please contact us by phone or email. Alternatively, check the News page or the blog for updates

Tim primarily works in Yorkshire including the dales and some moors but has made a few visits to Glencoe in Scotland and Northumberland. More pictures from the Peak District and Lake District soon.

Featured Photographer : Dan Baumbach

I found Dan's website a couple of years ago while I was starting out using a large format camera. His photography helped me to be confident taking pictures that weren't instantly gratifying but that grew over time. Since the start of last year, Dan has been running a blog about his photography which I kept up with.  more

Singing with Eigg

Third full day on the island and I decided to join everyone for a sunrise on that funky beach with the black and white sand. Rhum was looking particularly blue and I wasn't getting turned on by the scene. I wandered backward and forward for about an hour, taking a couple of shots but knowing I was doing very little original. Finally, I was looking through the ground glass and realised that the arrow shapes were looking like comets flying through the blue heavens and the reflection of the island was creating a mystical, blurred, dreamlike vision (I was starting to come down with the flu properly by now so this may have had something to do with it).  more

What is Landscape Photography

One of the question that most landscape photographers don't conciously think about very often but always seems to come up when discussing competitions/awards is 'What is Landscape Photography?'. It seems like a fairly innocuous question but it's not really that simple to answer; and even if you ask people who seem to agree, the edges of their definitions are always a little cloudy.  more

In the Woods - Eigg but no Rhum

On the second day me, Tamara Kuziminski and Dav Thomas wandered inland to have a look at a forest path that Richard had told us about. On the way to the path, we stopped to taste some blackberries (Banana flavoured ones! Really!) and saw a wonderful old, overgrown croft house surrounded by wild Fuschia.  more
