For much of 2014, I have been on the road for Lynda.com, producing the series, The Traveling Photographer. The latest episode, on London, has just posted.
Hard to believe it, but we have now logged over 50,000 miles. In addition to Hong Kong, Dubai, Paris and London, we have just finished filming the New York City segment, which will be published soon.
For more information about the entire series, see this earlier post.
onLandscape magazine’s landscape photography conference takes place amongst some of Britain’s most dramatic countryside in the English Lake District on 22nd and 23rd November 2014.
Billed as Europe’s biggest landscape photography event of the year it brings together some of the continent’s best known and loved photographers and the entire weekend is to be beamed out live via satellite and streamed around the world by StreamScape.
Luminous-Landscape is happy to announce that our readers can stream the video from the conference or download segments all for a special price. (see below)
The Swedish photographer Hans Strand tops the bill talking about the opportunity and inspiration Iceland has given him in his photography. Rafael Rojas the Spanish photographer, now living in Switzerland, who runs whytake.net, a massively popular photographic website, will be looking at which ingredients are needed to produce fine art landscape photographs.
While Britain’s best loved landscape photographer Joe Cornish pushes photographers to think at a higher level about their photographs, discusses some lesser known works and provides some thought provoking concepts for landscape photographers to take on-board.
Other speakers include the critically acclaimed Jem Southam whose work has been displayed in the Victoria & Albert Museum, Alan Hinks OBE, the only British photographer to climb all 14 of the world’s mountains over 8,000 meters.
The list goes on with David Ward, Paul Gallagher, David Clapp and Paul Wakefield all offering inspiration and insight any landscape photographer would love to hear.
The streamed event will give internet viewers the opportunity to question the speakers in special internet only “Green Room” interviews after each of their presentations. Particular need to viewers who are in different time zones has also been taken into account with special DVR functions allowing viewers to tune in at any time and rewind to the start of the day.
For those who are unable to watch over weekend all the videos will be available to watch on-line or download for at least 1 year after the event.

In this audacious private jet, the windows and their supporting infrastructure are instead being replaced with view screens that stitch together live footage being shot of the plane’s surroundings while it is in flight.
Meanwhile, six months later, Technicon Design has released concept drawings of Ixion, which likewise uses cameras mounted on the fuselage and wings to capture images for interior high-resolution display, but with an added dimension of also disappearing the rooftop of the cabin.
