Fine Art photographer Jessica Hilltout travelled to the mysterious African island of Madagascar. The stunning results can be seen in her latest body of work, IMPERFECTION.
Beautiful colour…subtle tones….clarity of vision…all of these things attracted me to Jessica Hilltout’s IMPERFECTION series of photos. Then I realised that the photographer was someone that I went to college with. It’s interesting to see how people have progressed since that time, how their photographic vision has matured, what paths their careers have taken, what places they’ve been to.
In college I never thought about the future, or where we would all be in ten years. Jessica’s life journey is particularly interesting because it involves my two passions – travel and photography. And it’s always nice to see someone succeeding. Her photos are beautiful – enjoy them.

The thing that amazes me about 15 year old Eleanor Hardwick’s work is how much she’s already achieved at such a young age. I didn’t even pick up an SLR camera until I was 18 and I certainly didn’t know the first thing about either the art or craft of photography.

Mitchell Kanashkevich wanders some of the world’s most remote places, capturing the ethereal beauty of the world’s disappearing cultures with his remarkable photos. From India to Indonesia, he documents the lives of people whose traditions may vanish as modernity encroaches.
I came across Mitchell Kanashkevich’s work after following a link from the Travel Photographer blog and I was blown away by the atmospheric quality of his Sulfur Miners photos. They were so good that I instantly knew that this was a photographer that I wanted to interview. I also recommend that you check out Mitchell’s blog.

Xavi Fuentes’ beautiful black and white images contrast the soft forms of the sea with the solidity of concrete and rock.

Xavi Fuentes‘ images are dominated by the sea. Slow shutter speeds reduce the movement of the water to a smooth blur, interrupted only by the solid forms of rocks and concrete. He shoots in the half-light of dawn and dusk, reducing the elements of the landscape to strong shapes and dramatic skies.

Fine Art Photographer Mark Edward Harris travelled to Iran to shoot his latest book. He talks about his experiences in the Middle Eastern country.
Photographer Mark Edward Harris first caught my eye with his beautiful black and white photos of Japanese baths. The photos bought to my attention to a part of Japanese culture that previously I’d known nothing about. I liked the intimacy of the photos and wanted to learn more about the photographer who took them.
