Our favourite photograph this month comes from our team member Don Tiffney and is entitled Safe Haven. Despite a very early morning start in the summer and a tricky combination of light sources Don has expertly worked his magic to make such a great image. A three minute exposure meant a steady tripod was required to keep the photograph nice and sharp! He tells us "A flat calm North Sea reflects the beam from the Flamborough Head lighthouse & the sodium lights cast a comforting glow over the weathered stonework on the harbour wall. This was photographed at 2am but it's not always as quiet

Pedro Bento is the latest recruit we would like to welcome to the Fotoviva photography team. Pedro is from Portugal and we are happy to have some of his great work available which includes some truly stunning landscape and seascape photography. He loves to take photographs in the extremes of the day, at dawn and dusk, when the 'golden light' appears for brief moments and shows the true beauty of a place. Pedro uses professional equipment by the likes of Canon and Manfrotto but always has in mind that cameras and lenses are simple tools and it isn’t the top gear equipment that captures the s

Our Photo of the Month is a new feature where we aim to showcase photographs of outstanding quality and beauty. For October we are presenting an incredible image by Tim Wallace called 'Northern Tide'. This is such a dramatic photograph with wonderfully vivid colours.

"This shot was taken just next to the pier at Saltburn on the North East coast at the very early hours of 4:50am as the sun was ri
