A photograph so large it took up most of an entire bridge could break a world record for the world’s largest cyanotype. Created by a group of artists and nearly 100 volunteers in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the cyanotype stretches more than 430 feet long.

This nose-to-lens giraffe photograph earned a major award for its dramatic camera phone perspective

There’s a particular kind of photograph that only a curious animal and a very wide-angle lens can produce together.
German photographer Marcel Ohneberger’s giraffe portrait is exactly that: an enormous, looming head fills most of the frame, its neck curving away…
Beta Pictoris, located about 63 light-years away from Earth, is one of the most photographed planetary systems outside of our own – yet despite all the data coming from that part of the sky, a faint planet remained hidden. After researchers noted a bright spot in new…
I can still remember the first time that, standing with a camera around my neck and aching feet, one of the members of the bridal party told me that I had done a great job. I must have looked confused. The wedding wasn’t even over yet, the photographs had yet to leave my camera – how did she know my photographs weren’t terrible?

A number of the photographs that I’ve come across this week look as if they were shot on the scene of a post-apocalyptic movie – but the devastating wildfires across the globe, sparking eerie, smoke-filled scenes, are not the stuff of Hollywood…
There’s a particular kind of shot that’s a gift, in theory at least, to photographers. The lone building, boarded up and improbable, standing on its own with nothing else around it. Dramatic irony and geometric symmetry in equal measure.

If you go to any photo trade show, the number of LED makers far exceeds the number of strobe and flash makers. We’ve had brands like Bowens fold in recent years, even though their mount is the de facto standard for lighting modifiers. Even small flash makers aren’t immune to this, with Cactus, one of the first to get a trigger and flash combo that worked across a huge range of camera makers.
At first glance, this could almost be two lions rearing against the night sky, their manes rendered in molten gold. Look closer, though, and what Chinese photographer Ziqiang Luo has actually captured is something rooted deep in folk tradition: a fire-based performance art…
You Never Did Anything Wrong opens at the Hayward Gallery on November 24 this year, running until March 7 2027. It’s Goldin’s first UK institutional show since 2002, and as we previously reported, sees her turning her lens on classical art and sculpture. That in…
There’s a video doing the rounds on social media in Chile showing a group of wildlife photographers coming within just meters of a puma in the Torres del Paine National Park (Chilean Patagonia), and it’s causing quite a ruckus.
On one side, you’ve got those pointing the finger at the photographers and their guide for what appears to be a major encroachment on the puma’s territory. And on…
