Winter doe - Nick McGowan-Lowe, 2009
I’m lucky enough to live in one of the most beautiful parts of Scotland, surrounded by forests teeming with wildlife. This photograph was taken barely a mile from my village, but in a wood so isolated hardly anyone else visits it. My eight year old son is an avid bone collector, and we spend a lot of enjoyable time together in the forests and hills around our village, with him tracking the red and roe deer herds, and me with a 600mm on my shoulder.

Tilda Swinton, Edinburgh - Geraint Lewis, 2001
The Independent commissioned me to photograph Tilda Swinton at the 2001 Edinburgh Film Festival. She was promoting the film The Deep End at one of the city hotels. I arrived early to set up and saw her being photographed for Time Out. She looked amazing in a beautiful pale blue suit with that unique look of hers, a look I was hoping to capture. When the Time Out shoot ended she went upstairs to change.

The Blue Dragon at the Barbican - Bettina Strenske, 2011
When we attended the photocall for Robert Lepage’s project “The Blue Dragon” at the Barbican Theatre in London, we were given the standard three scenes to shoot, but shooting that day was particularly tricky as Lepage used a mixture of back and front projection which meant the theatre’s lighting levels could not be adjusted for the photocall.

I took this picture on the way back from a commission for a design company photographing a transport depot full of lorries in Northern Spain.

2007 was the year that climate change hit the headlines, spurred on by the week long Camp for Climate Action on the edge of Heathrow airport.
Jumping model, Cape Town - Henry Arden, 2008
This image of a jumping model was produced after I decided to stay on and take some stock photographs at the end of a catalogue shoot in Cape Town. In the past magazines would have commissioned their own health and beauty pictures, but now they mostly buy from agencies like Cultúra Creative who I have been supplying for four years.

"Reflecting on Old Times" Isle of Anglesey – Glyn Davies, 2007
I seem to remember that as a child there were many more derelict old barns, buildings and structures than can be found these days. With the construction of ever bigger and faster roads, the pressure on this rural island of Anglesey to accommodate increasing numbers of visitors is changing the face of our past.
Appleby Horse Fair - Steve Franck, 2010
I first heard about the Appleby Horse Fair when a photographer friend showed me some of her work. I was struck by the actual and metaphorical colour of the people and the fair. It dates back hundreds of years and enjoys Royal Charter status, ensuring that gypsies and travellers return to Cumbria every year to trade horses and meet up with family and friends.

Boat Wake, Irvine- Alan Mackie/197 aerial photography, 1999
This was a grab shot. I was chatting to a potential customer with the kite and camera rig flying overhead. As we spoke there was the noise of an eejit on a jet-ski roaring up the river and I turned the camera rig and took this photo, using the video down-link to time it so that his wake neatly matched the shape of the riverbank.

Almond tree in flower near Chio, Tenerife - Phil Crean, 2012
Every spring almond trees blossom on the hills near my home in Tenerife, and every year I’m drawn to photograph them. Some of the images are licensed through the stock agency Alamy and some I’ve sold as prints, but the real incentive is to savour the spring sunshine and capture what I love about the landscape of the island. It has become a small, annual, part of my documentation of places, events and traditions of Las Islas Canarias.

Living with Wolfie - Tamany Baker, 2007
The series documents my response to the ‘presents’ that Wolfie, my beloved cat, brings into the home. At first, I experienced some kind of horror: these dead creatures waiting for me in different parts of my house.
@deedeesvintage, Dalston - Travis Hodges, 2011
This image is from a project exploring social networking. I had been resisting joining Twitter and finally signed up with a promise to make something creative of the experience. I was interested in the way that friendships and networks develop through social media and decided to explore this process by photographing a series of these connections.

Gardeners' hands - Paul Debois, 2008-9
‘43 Gardeners’ Hands’ is a series of portraits of some of the UK’s best known gardeners, focused on just their hands. They were inspired by the fantastic working collages from the 1920s, of botanical photographer Karl Blossfeldt. His work is almost anatomical and I wanted to produce a series of images that turned each pair of hands into a botanical specimen, reversing the effect of his work.

Stockings and tights - Andre Regini, 2005
This was a one of those challenging shoots I enjoy putting together. The production was for a demanding client, an Austrian living in the UK who’s company was importing hosiery from Austria. The parent company had been sold and all their marketing collateral had been withdrawn, so the shoot was needed to replace a large range of images.

The River - Lottie Davies
‘The River’ is from my series Memories and Nightmares, which are images inspired by stories of early childhood memories and nightmares which I’ve collected. This one, from my friend Kate, was particularly odd, and although it demanded some very specific elements I was determined to shoot it.

Aerial view of Cologne cathedral at night - Jonathan Webb, 2008
Shooting night photography is quite a challenge. Normally one would use a long exposure and a tripod, however from a moving flying machine this is not possible. Even a helicopter hovering in mid air has a significant amount of movement.
Symmetrical landscape – Robert Wilkinson, 2007
This is part of a personal project that I started called ‘Sea & Symmetry’.
Former Child Soldier, Sri Lanka - David White, 2005
This photograph was taken in 2005 in Jaffna, Sri Lanka. There was a ceasefire in the Sri Lankan civil war and I had been commissioned by a glossy magazine to photograph recuperating child soldiers, children who had originally been kidnapped by the LTTE and made to fight.
Clydeside - Jeremy Sutton-Hibbert, 1993
A few years before I took this photograph a fellow student at college got a shot of the River Clyde during a ship launch. The image greatly impressed me – the view of Glasgow, the ship and thousands of pigeons taking flight because of the noise. I wanted a photograph like that.

The Cider Makers - Graham Trott, 2008
In the photograph above, Frank and his friend Paul return from apple-picking, late afternoon, in the winter sunshine. It was shot from the hip, while walking backwards, with an aperture of f1.4, so I suppose it is also a bit of a lucky shot – few of the other frames worked as well. The shallow depth of field lends a certain 3D quality to the image, and the harsh shadows and deep blue sky serve to enhance the look.
Black Hawk down, Mogadishu, Somalia - Theodore Liasi, 1994
I have travelled to Somalia several times over the years since 1994, the last time was in 2007 when I found the situation to be as anarchic as my very first trip. Somalia has always been a special place for me as it was the genesis of my career in photojournalism after several years working in Italy living La Dolce Vita for ABC News and Reuters.

Continuing professional development – the answer to a few problems?
It was quite a few years ago when Bob Dylan sang; “Times they are a changing”. The slow drift from a transparency and print world via scanned negatives to a digital workflow has taken the best part of twenty years and in that time a lot of good, indifferent and bad practices have developed argues EPUK columnist Neil Turner
Boy in a swing in Managua, Nicaragua – Julio Etchart, 2004
I photographed this boy in the playground of a youth centre run by Nicaragua’s YMCA – supported by the London-based charity Y Care International – in Managua.

Frank Stone captures the 21st Panzer Division in Northallerton - Paul David Drabble, 2011
Professional photography has led me to take up the strange and sometimes surreal hobby of World War Two reenacting. Earlier this year a friend of mine who is a reenactor with a German Unit, the 21st Panzer Division, helped organise the Nothallerton Wartime Weekend, with money raised going to four charities.

Greek Ampitheatre, Italy – Matthew Ashton, 2002
Jim Kerr, the lead singer of Simple Minds had moved to live in Taormina, a small town in Sicily, Italy. With his wealth he could live anywhere and I questioned him on his choice of home. Being typical Jim, he replied, “Come and discover for yourself”, and so being typical me, I did.

Pensioners strike back – Paula Geraghty, 2008
Ireland does not have a free universal health care system. A number of years ago a free universal health care also known as the Medical Card was introduced for everyone over 70 years of age.
Journey to Safety Refugee Project, Red Cross - Rob Johns, 2006
The small, brightly coloured, plastic object in the photograph looks innocuous enough but is in fact, a lethal military weapon. Used by the Russian army, the PFM-1, anti-infantry high-explosive mine, also known as a ‘butterfly mine,’ was scattered from helicopters and from artillery during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
The Warrior Monks of the Golden Horse Monastery – Jack Picone, 2005
It is two pm in the unforgiving tropical heat as the young novice monks lie quietly on their horses in a mountain stream, high up on the Thai/Burmese border, but their daily rituals begin much earlier.
Sir Paul Stephenson becomes Commissioner of The Metropolitan Police Force - Neil Turner, 2009
The Metropolitan Police has an in-house magazine called The Job and I was asked to shoot two sets of pictures of Sir Paul Stephenson for it when he became the new Commissioner in February 2009. The first set were portraits in his office and the second was of his address to a meeting of rank and file officers at the Methodist Central Hall in London the following morning.

Penal Colony Number One - Jeremy Nicholl, 2004
This was shot in 2004 for Der Spiegel. We were doing a story on how the Uzbek state was using the USA’s war on terror as a means to control its own population under the guise of fighting Islamic extremism. The Uzbeks gave us access to the prison to interview a supposed local Al Qaeda leader. That was of course a deadly dull picture shot during the interview, but after some persuasion they let me wander around the prison, although they kept a close eye on me.
Masked protester attacks policeman, London - Jules Mattsson, 2011
I’ve always been interested in documenting political news, and have photographed protest movements in the UK and elsewhere since before I became professional in 2010.

Winter at Avebury Henge, Wiltshire - Bob Croxford, 2003
I have been running my own self-publishing business since 1984. Nothing very special, just landscapes of the west country. I started a series of small, postcard sized books in 2001 and a couple of years later did The Landscape of Avebury.
The Sacred Tattoos of Thailand - Dan White, 2010
In Thailand and the surrounding countries, a parallel realm of the spirits provide powerful, everyday companions to mortal man. Many see the wearing of a certain kind of tattoo as a way of tapping into the power that comes from that world.

Timber Wolf, Austria - Louise Murray, 2013
I waited two years for this shot. I needed snow in Austria where the Wolf Science Centre is located at a time I was available. In January it all came together perfectly. This was a self-funded project to add the winter dimension to a commissioned summer shoot that I had done the previous year for Flipside magazine. The resulting portfolio of images with my text describing research at the centre has since been syndicated globally.

Hawksbill turtle – Charles Hood, 1995
This image, photographed in the Red Sea, Egypt, was taken in the days of film, when the biggest limitation to the underwater photographer was being limited to just 36 exposures because, unlike top-side photography, you can’t change films underwater.
'Collateral damage' Afghanistan – Susan Schulman, 2007
I took this picture when I was following the RAF MERT services. During the period I was with them, except for two ANA soldiers, all the casualties we picked up were Afghan civilians – and of these, all women and babies.
Rag-picker Patti Das and his child - Stuart Freedman, Delhi, 2011
I have, on and off for the last few years, been making work in Delhi about those people that find themselves outside the tiny bubble of wealth that is, according to the advertising, modern India. Delhi was once a sleepy bureaucratic cousin to Mumbai but is now an island of ostentatious wealth floating on a sea of mediaeval squalor. Slum clearances are set against fairy-tale prices for real-estate and the city is viciously segregated between those that have wealth and those that produce it.
Funeral of a Deputy Sheriff, Louisiana - Charlie Varley, 2012
At five-o’clock on the morning of 16 August 2012 a Deputy Sheriff working a traffic detail in LaPlace, Louisiana, was shot and seriously injured by assailants unknown.

Viper's Bugloss in flower - Geoff Doré, 1983
On my way back south from Scotland, where I’d been working for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, I stopped off in Northumberland to visit Holy Island and Lindisfarne Castle and take some stock photographs. It was 1983 and, in response to photolibrary needs, I’d forayed into medium format and bought a Mamyia C220 which I intended using mainly for landscape photography.
Irish Tinkers - Janine Wiedel, 1970s
These photographs come from Irish Tinkers: A Portrait of Irish Travellers in the 1970s, my newly released iBook which is a remake of the original publication which followed on from an exhibition of my work at the Photographers Gallery in 1976.
