- Mark Littlejohn was born in Edinburgh in 1962 but has lived in North Cumbria for over thirty years. A retired detective and computer forensic analyst, he took up photography relatively late in life and came into it via a love for his local landscape of Ullswater and the Eden Valley.
He specialises in split toning colour images and prefers the smaller view to the grand vista. In 2014 he was named the Take a View UK Landscape Photographer of the Year. He spends his years alternating between working on the Ullswater Steamers and running small photographic workshops in the Eden Valley and the Lake District.
At the Meeting of Minds conference 2017, Mark opened the event with a talk about the aesthetics and reasoning behind his use of split toning in his photography of the Lake District. www.onlandscape.co.uk/2017/03... - Zábava
He has a great eye and sense of humour! A timely reminder not to take it all too seriously! 😊
So much good sensible advice in this lecture. Thank you Mark. Have become a big fan of your unorthodox approach not to mention your outstanding photos.
At last someone calling that Mountain by its name "Stob Dearg" thanks for that Mark and for showing your heartfelt work.
I enjoyed watching Mark's talk, very refreshing and thoughtful.
Hello Mark and David, I only stumbled upon this video today which I enjoyed immensely. I am also from the beautiful City of Edinburgh and remember very well when Mark won the UK Landscape Photographer of the Year and gave a talk in the City of Belfast and I just had to make the long drive down to meet him - And I was not disappointed. I was so, so, proud of him. Regards, Allan Davies...
I'm eighty now and have been keen on Photography since I was twelve. Mark has proved here that I'm still learning. A really great talk and video. Need to work harder don't I ?
John Goodwin work less think more :)
Excellent presentation of Mark's beautiful work.
beautiful images thank you.
Fantastic photography!
Very much looking forward to my Ullswater steamers trip this week! Some incredible images Mark, never tried split toning! your subtle edits are fantastic!
💜 Thanks for sharing! 😍 ✌ 😍
I think there was a slightly having-your-cake-and-eating-it vibe here with all the talk of simplicity, no tripods, no cropping, it's all about the landscape, forget about the equipment etc combined with serious colour manipulation in darkroom, stitching, opening in photoshop to make the forests look mistier, and in general (in my opinion) not so much photographing what was there as using it as the basis for a Tolkeinian re-imagination of what was there. The images are very enjoyable and the talk interesting regardless.
"[I] can process this image in maybe five or six minutes . . . ." The "Landscape Photographer og the Year" should've been awarded to Adobe.
Some of it I find beautiful, others I find look like calendar landscapes with hdr. I think I just like film better.
More editing than photography skills ... not impressed with all due respect!
