has already been photographed to death it’s more difficult than ever. Those who succeed have managed to go beyond the mere record shot to encapsulate some of the feeling of being there, or have found an original approach that hasn’t just followed in the tripod holes of the previous visitor. This week’s issue is packed with inspiration and advice from some of the UK’s top landscape photographers. And if you’d like to meet some of them in person, then don’t miss our Festival of Outdoor Photography at the end of May, where AP will be hosting three days of talks and small group masterclasses.
