Welcome to the second episode of "The Dirty Negative Podcast," where UK-based photographers Terry Livsey and Lewis James Phillips continue their journey into the world of photography by welcoming their special guest, large-format wilderness photographer Ben Horne.
In this episode, Ben Horne shares his decade-long adventure of creating captivating landscape imagery using the traditional 10x8 large format camera. Known for his thoughtful and patient approach, Ben has built a loyal following on his YouTube channel, where he documents his photographic process in some of the most breathtaking natural locations across the United States, including Death Valley and Zion National Park.

His work stands out not just for its technical precision but also for its ability to convey the raw and unfiltered character of the natural world. Ben's philosophy is grounded in the idea of slowing down and engaging deeply with the environment, allowing the landscape itself to dictate the image.
