This week’s
cover image
As we bid 2021 farewell, we’re
sure that, photographically at
least, 2022 will be a great year for
all our readers. To make sure it
happens for you, our main
feature focuses on how to find
your creative mojo (or get it back). It’s all too easy
to get stale and lose confidence with your
photography, but regular scribe and workshop
leader Benedict Brain is bursting with ideas to
turbocharge your creativity. We can’t wait to see
the results, so keep sending in your best shots or
share on our social media. Other highlights include
the inside story about the album photography of
the classic Stones platter,
Sticky Fingers,
and on the
subject of old warhorses, a field test of the iconic
Nikon F5. We also highlight a compelling
photography portrait project and we show the
right way to replace dull skies in Photoshop.

of the week
Harmony
by Matt McCormick
Nikon D850, Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 G2 lens at
125mm, 1/4sec at f/11, ISO 64
Matt says, ‘I took this image when wandering along the
shores of Loch Achray in the Trossachs on a misty
morning. The composition grabbed my attention as
I saw the similarity in the form of the grasses and the
island in the distance and the balance it created. I
used focus stacking to ensure sharpness throughout.’

I Got My Eyes on You
by James Allen
Nikon D500, Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6 VR lens
at 300mm, 1/2000sec at f/5.6, ISO 1500
James says, ‘I have a real passion and interest in
photographing birds of prey and I particularly love
owls. This photograph was taken on an organised
Bird of Prey Photography Workshop with falconers
from Fritton Owl Sanctuary in Norfolk. It was a
fantastic day with a nice variety of stunning birds!
The workshop took place in Worlingham, Suffolk. It
was the ideal location because we had acres of
woodland offering beautiful autumn colours for an
amazing backdrop.’
