Paul Sanders
Landscape Photographer
Paul Sanders is a photographer with over 30 years experience working in newspapers, magazines and leading workshops. He chooses to work in black and white as a form of abstraction, by removing colour people can explore the texture and content of his work without the distraction of colour. Paul prints and makes small photo books of his work. Making a series of images and bringing them together in a small book is a joy and helps you appreciate the simple beauty of making an image and then printing it out to bring the process to a beautiful conclusion.
