NATURAL HISTORY PHOTOGRAPHER : Steve Bloom
“For more than ten years, photographer Steve Bloom travelled all over the world, roaming through the jungles of Borneo, the African savannahs, and the frozen banks of Antarctica to assemble this dazzling collection of photographs of animals in their environments.”
Well worth a look stunning photography of special interest are his outdoor exhibitions.
Sensor
& Sensibility (Understanding Sensor Issues)
This is an excellent article written by Michael Reichmann on the LUMINOUS
LANDSCAPE web site, in which he explains some of the issues relating
to sensor size, sensor type, and pixel count. The LUMINOUS LANDSCAPE
web site, as a whole, contains an almost endless list of articles, reports,
and product reviews aimed at the very highest end of the imagining scene.
Overseas travel groups are organised by Michael to exotic locations
such as the Antartica, Africa, China etc., subsequent reports include
details of the trips, example images and relevant findings with regards
to the equipment being used (normally Large Format and Medium Format
of the highest quality). By searching through the various archives you
will almost certainly come across content that will be of interest to
you, be that travel, equipment or technique related. It's well worth
the time spent browsing through this site, and well worth adding to
your 'favourites', as this kind of information is pretty thin on the
ground, and it's all here free-of-charge for you to view.

This is the home of ‘PicturesToExe’ slideshow presentations.
There is a list of over 100 slideshows that you can download to your
computer to view at your leisure. Broadband is recommended as the majority
of these slideshows are quite large. The slideshows are created by members
of the PicturesToExe Forum, most shows are very good (?), and new ones
are added fairly regularly.
