Background

Philip Bell has exhibited photographs of Australian landscapes in Sydney and Copenhagen, and has published several articles of photojournalism on Australian geographical regions.

“I photograph nature, aware of the threat from climate change and human degradation that Australian landforms confront. I use quite long exposure and low light settings because I don’t mind a soft image, one that is pushed to lose the sheen that I associate with digital tourism and advertising imagery.”
     -    Philip Bell

Philip’s limited edition photographs of the Landscape and its microcosms around the Warrumbungle National Park and Central Australia reveal the rich palette of the bush and outback and capture its shifting patterns of light.

Philip also owns and operates a small independent gallery, “The Corner Gallery Stanmore” located in Sydney's Inner West.  For several years he has been exhibiting 'art' photographs of Australia; some conventional landscapes and some more abstract interpretations of landforms and water.
