‘At the Mountains of Madness’ is the title of a novel by H.P. Lovecraft. The intense atmosphere of this book has inspired me to name my new handmade photo book after it. The theme is mountain based and quite dark and moody, how could it not be thus? It’s an A5 sized 24 pages saddle-stitch…
I’m very honoured to have contributed to a very special photography tutorial book by German nature photographer Jana Mänz – ‘Naturfotografie natürlich anders’. The first edition of this book (‘Naturfotografie ganz anders’) was released in 2014 and Jana’s unique approach to nature photography gave me many ideas and much inspiration. This year it has been…

I picked the theme up again recently, and the images in the gallery Mirrormask are what happen when one…
