Landscape

The Landscape Special Interest Group is dedicated to encouraging landscape photography and advancing the skills of its practitioners. Since its launch in 2016, the group has welcomed photographers of all levels, from beginners to experts, and offers a range of events, publications, and online platforms for members to share their work and collaborate with others.

Landscape photography has a long history and has become one of the most popular forms of photography, with techniques such as intentional camera movement, multiple exposures, and the use of filters allowing photographers to capture the ephemeral beauty of landscapes.

The Landscape Special Interest Group aims to spread understanding of these techniques through practical use and collaboration.

The group also produces a regular e-newsletter and a print magazine every 8 months, as well as offering opportunities for members to share their images through print and e-critique circles and a members-only Facebook Group.

Themed competition

Meadows, Flowers and Light

As summer approaches, we invite you to capture the enchanting dance between meadows, flowers, and light in our latest themed competition. This season offers a spectacular canvas where wildflowers paint meadows with vibrant colours, while summer light, whether the golden glow of sunrise, the dramatic rays piercing through storm clouds, or the soft luminescence of dusk, transforms these natural tapestries into magical scenes. We challenge you to explore how light interacts with meadows, flowers, and the natural world. Demonstrate your unique vision of these fleeting moments where meadows, flowers, and light converge to create landscape photography at its most evocative.

The competition runs until 21 August 2025.

Calendar 2026

The Landscape Group is excited to launch our 2026 calendar project.

Many of us have calendars adorning our walls. In this digital age, there is still something reassuring about having inspiring images displayed on a printed calendar that we can admire every month throughout the year. We want to celebrate the incredible images we see from our members on a regular basis by creating our second Landscape Group calendar.
