"Carpathians, Summer morning, 2015" by Aleksandr Kryushyn

I'm impressed by the fresh mountain air and bright colours of the Carpathian Mountains! A bright sunny morning in June in a mountain village. Alexander Kriushin is works in the traditions of the European school of fine arts, combined with the southern temperament of execution. The artist travels a lot and works en plein air, but often a plain etude is just an excuse for further work, and then the work begins in the studio.

"Ben Robson Hull, Deep In The Forest - Limited Edition Print" by Northlight Harbour

“This photograph was made in a small copse just beneath Stanage Edge in the Derbyshire Peak District. Locally it is called 'The Plantation', in particular amongst us rock climbers. I had arrived at sunrise to capture the morning sunlight on the boulders but it turned out to be a rather dull and misty morning. So, I turned my attention to the Autumnal Beech trees and fallen leaves and set about recording the vast array of colours on display. This tree in particular suddenly jumped out at me as having a beautiful curving shape and form that was very difficult to isolate against the background and other clutter in the woods. If you were to stand in front of the tree you wouldn't necessarily see the shape because of everything else going on around the tree. This is a great example of attempting to create a composition that works from a very busy and cluttered field of view. The colours have been tweaked and strengthened slightly post process to provide a magical and mystical feel to the photograph.” - Ben Robson Hull
