Take a walk on the wild side with stunning b&w wildlife photography from Richard Peters; glimpse the unique and tradition-bound lives of Irish Travellers through the lens of photojournalist Sebastian Hesse-Kastein; in an era of multiple memory cards Dave Chow looks at the end of beloved Polaroid and the rise of a new company set on bringing instant back; and floral x-ray photographer Allan Gill takes up the B+W hot seat for some quick fire questions.
Exploring how different cameras can capture our vision of the world in specific ways, Eddie Ephraums continues his new series Many Ways of Seeing with a compact camera in hand; Tim Clinch considers the art of imperfection and provides some handy Lightroom advice; the National Media Museum archives highlight the surprising ties between photography and cycling; and we investigate the evocative animal photography of Anne Berry.
