How to Take Perfect Long Exposures
"There’s not much I miss about shooting film. It’s the pictures that matter in the end and the waste, the cost, the bracketing, the scanning, the wait to see the results; all of those film hassles seem increasingly like distant memories.

"Taking great photos of women relies hugely on great understanding. It is vital to understand your subject, whatever you are photographing, in order to get the best out of them, and no more so than with women. Women are probably the most self-critical people to photograph, and I should know, I've photographed over 10,000 of them throughout my caree......

How to Photograph Winter Landscapes
"Many people dream of the long, languorous days of summer, with its gentle, warm zephyrs. But, as a landscape photographer I dream of the short days of winter, preferably with snow and ice.

Olympus Wood Camera
"Yes, you read the headline correctly - this wooden camera from Olympus is one of the stranger products on display at Photokina 2006. Clearly based on the enduring Mju series of Olympus cameras, the Olympus Wood camera is a working prototype that apparently may or may not go into production (we certainly wouldn't bet on that happening).

The Death of the Bridge Camera
"The first ever digital camera that I bought was the Minolta DiMAGE 5 bridge-style camera, so-called because it “bridged” the gap between a smaller compact digital camera and a larger digital SLR.
