Are photography magazines still worth buying in 2026? In a world of endless scrolling, I take an honest look at what print still offers—and whether titles like Outdoor Photography Magazine and British Journal of Photography are still worth your time and money.

First published in 1984, Landscape in Britain is a fascinating look at British landscape photography through the work of Charlie Waite. More than 40 years later, its simple compositions, use of film and emphasis on observation still have plenty to teach photographers today.

Your kit lens is often underestimated, but it’s one of the best tools for improving your photography. In this guide, you’ll learn why mastering the lens you already own can transform your skills, help you understand composition and light, and save you money before upgrading your gear.

Taschen’s A History of Photography from 1839 to the Present packs nearly two centuries of photographic history into one remarkably affordable book. I take a look at what it does well, some surprising omissions and whether I’d still recommend buying it.

The Lowepro Pro Runner 450 AW II might be discontinued, but that doesn't mean it's obsolete. I picked up a barely used example for £90 and have been putting it to work carrying everything from multiple lenses and camera bodies to a drone and accessories. Here's how it performs, what fits inside and whether this older Lowepro camera bag is still worth buying second hand.

Photographers on Location with Charlie Waite takes landscape photography out of the textbook and into the field. In this mini review, I look at what the book offers photographers today and why it remains an interesting addition to a landscape photography bookshelf.

Wide-angle lenses are a popular choice for landscape photography, but using them well takes more than simply fitting more into the frame. Wide-angle landscape photography is about understanding perspective, foreground, and composition, and knowing when a wide lens enhances a scene — and when it doesn’t.

In this article, I explore how wide-angle lenses behave in landscape photography, why they’re so effective for creating a sense of depth and place, and the common mistakes that can lead to empty or unbalanced images. Whether you’re new to landscape photography or refining your approach, this guide focuses on making deliberate, thoughtful choices rather than relying on focal length alone.
