Today I was searching around the world wide web, trying to find artists with a similar nature to me. I came across this website called "Photoslaves". A site that seems to be updated rarely, that works in the form of a blog. Nevertheless since looking on this website it has opened me up to photographers that I have never even heard of. As well as including information and pictures about Michael Kenna and Matin Stavars (two of my favorite photographers), it also includes many more who use long shutter speeds.
Here I have found Adam Clutterbuck a landscape photographer who seeks out strong and stripped down compositions. He was grown up in the west of Cornwall so it is not surprising many of his images are taken at the coast.
Another Photographer is David Burdeny who makes his own black and white prints in makeshift darkrooms under his bedroom closet. Once again he uses long shutter speeds to capture the movement of water and the land. Stunning compositions captured on medium format cameras.
This website has been one of my favorites to look at during the course of this year.
