About

Dennis Bromage is one of the UK's fastest emerging stars of Landscape & Nature photography. Widely published in all the UK's leading photographic magazines and several major travel titles including a double page feature in Wanderlust after making it the finals of their Travel Photographer of the Year competition early in 2010. One of his Polar Bear images also features in the Travel Photographer of the Year, Journey Three book after making it to the final of that competition. Dennis also currently has 3 images shortlisted for the Take a View Landscape Photographer of the Year Awards. Fingers and everything else crossed for that one, wish me luck I certainly need it!!!

I'm based in Teesside in the North East of England and have a real passion for the outdoors, particularly the mountains and coasts and especially the more wild, rugged & remote areas. My hope is that this site will convey at least a little of my passion... I especially love the quiet of dawn & dusk, when magical things happen that transform the landscape. My intention is never merely to create a photographic record of a place but to capture something of its essence & soul, to convey the mood of how it felt to be there at the precise moment the shutter was released and to create something special & interesting that will look beautiful hanging on a wall for many years.

I work with digital SLR's (currently a 5D MkII) and strive to and find it incredibly rewarding getting the image right in camera, using a small selection of filters, with careful metering and control of the exposure. This allows me to keep my post processing to a minimum, normally doing little more than adjusting the Levels & Curves to make the RAW file look like the image on the back of the camera. It's not that I have anything against post processing and I will on occasion use all the tools available to the digital photographer BUT I'll only use these tools to capture what's there, never to create a mood or scene that didn't exist. For me truth in photography and making images that look natural and that are believable is everything...

Thanks for visiting my site, I hope you enjoy the images.
