We’re back with a small ‘bonus episode’ featuring Charlie Waite. In this episode we discuss the origins of ‘Landscape Photographer of the Year’ (lpoty.co.uk) with Charlie. We reflect on how the competition has developed over the last 13 years, how it has positively impacted the lives of many photographers, and much more.

We also get to quiz Charlie on some of the criticisms of competitions and get his thoughts on how the landscape genre has evolved over the last two decades and its position in the media world.
