Two images by Mark Sunderland are featured in the November 2007 issue of Daleman magazine.

Entitled 'A Different View' - another angle to some of the Dales most popular beauty spots, two semi-abstract shots of How Stean Gorge and Malham Cove take up the centre pages.

For details of the magazine see http://www.dalesman.co.uk/subs/page1.htm

This issue of the Daleman is currently available in newsagents.

A similar image Waterfall, How Stean Gorge is availabe in Mark's Autumn in The Dales online fine art print gallery.

A similar Malham Cove image is available as a poster in Mark's Yorkshire Landscapes poster series.

The Seascapes series of limited edition prints by Mark Sunderland is now available at www.marksunderland.com

Mark explains this new set of images as follows:

"My inspiration for this series of images has been contemporary seascape painting rather than photography. I love the simplicity of images which are just made up of layers of blue - sea and sky punctuated by clouds and waves and the light interacting with these elements. Working digitally and experimenting with camera movement along with the movement of the waves I have tried to create similar images of the sea photographically. The camera settings became less important than usual in this process, with the speed and shape of the camera movement having more impact on the final image, like the brush strokes of the paintings that I admire."

A sample image Sea of Light II is shown below

Mark Sunderland will be presenting images from countries on both sides of the Atlantic in a talk to be held at Harrogate Photographic Society this evening, Monday 5th November 2007.

Harrogate Photographic Society meets at The Friends Meeting Hall, Homestead Road, Harrogate at 7:45pm.

The October issue of Photography Monthly magazine is now on the shelves featuring the new Lone Tree, Limestone Pavement image by Mark Sunderland on the front cover as mentioned previously in this blog.

This issue also includes a gallery feature by Mark and a waterfalls technique article.

The gallery feature includes The Backlit Maple from Westonbirt Arboretum (below).  Mark shot this image quite a few years ago on his Deardorff 5x4 large format camera and it has always proved popular as a print and greetings card, but this is its first magazine appearance!

The waterfalls feature, plus a digital technique section, features Mark's Swirling Leaves, Walden Beck and West Burton Falls images from his Yorkshire Through The Seasons collection, along with some of the new images from his recent Moving Water series of limited edition prints.  The article explains how these new images were made.

Photography Monthly is published by Archant Specialist www.photographymonthly.com

This month's image was taken late last summer way up at the top of Nidderdale...

Nidderdale may not be as famous as the dales within the Yorkshire Dales national park, but it's still worthy of a visit to see typical dales barns and dry stone walls - and it tends to be a lot quieter!

Atmospheric Landscapes http://www.marksunderland.com/Posters/Posters1.html

I was walking along the Nidd Gorge this weekend and, although the flowers are not out yet, the distinctive aroma of the wild garlic was defintely in the air, reminding me of this spring image taken in Strid Wood last year...

Look out for my article about the remote landscape of Chile's Region XI in the April issue of Outdoor Photography magazine published today.

Available in all good newsagents!

This month's image shows a light dusting of snow over the patchwork fields in Farndale on a winter day:

After taking this image, as I was putting the camera gear away, some of the sheep came over to the nearby gate - clearly hoping I was about to produce a fresh bale of hay from the back of the car, but sadly I had nothing to give them!

Look out for my new travel article in the February issue of Outdoor Photography magazine, out today!

The three page Encounters feature, entitled Off-peak Attraction includes the image of El Teide, above, and starts on page 52.

If you missed my recent Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition at Harrogate Library, you have another chance to see some of the images in Knaresborough from this month

The images will be on show at McQueen's Cafe, 51 High Street, Knaresborough

From 25th January 2007 until late March 2007 (date to be confirmed)

This month's image is the rather alarming Storm Over Littondale:

This image was captured way up Littondale late on a winter afternoon, with clouds rushing by and casting ever-changing shadows on the daleside.

This was one of the images in my Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition at Harrogate Library last month.  Thanks to everyone that visited, and for the nice comments in the visitors book, some of which are now available to view on the website at:

www.marksunderland.com/Exhibitions/YorkshireThroughTheSeasons.html

My apologies if you were hoping to read a message announcing a January Sale!

Unfortunately last year's alignment of prices between web and art show sales, with the introduction of separate delivery charges, was the last reduction in prices that I am able to offer (ever).  This is, of course, great news if you bought a print in 2006, as prices are only going upwards from now on!  However, my fine art print prices will remain at the current levels for the time being - but I am expecting them to rise later in 2007.

Due to production costs, my A5 greetings card price will rise to £2.80 this month.

New work by Mark Sunderland has recently been added both to the Alamy collection and to The National Trust Photo Library.

Mark now has over 2000 images placed with Alamy.

Also, over 100 of Mark's images of the British countryside are exclusively available from NTPL.

Mark Sunderland's Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition is now showing at The Stairwell Gallery, Harrogate Library!

A new image series entitled A Yorkshire Summer has been added to the website, featuring ten new images taken across Yorkshire during the summer of 2006.

Summer Heather - Hole of Horcum, North York Moors

Along with the earlier autumn, winter and spring image series, this completes the set of images on show in the Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition at Harrogate Library from Monday, 11 December through to Saturday 23 December.

So says the local press!  My new exhibition Yorkshire Through The Seasons, which starts on Moday 11th December 2006, gets a mention in this week's Knaresborough Post, along with two photographs, Summer Heather and Oak Trees in Spring.  Plus, the Weekend what's on guide (also included in the Harrogate Advertiser) has a feature on the exhibition along with my Pen-Y-Ghent image.

The exhibition is at Harrogate Library and continues until 23rd December 2006.
