HUGH MILSOM

Hugh Milsom is an accomplished photographer, writer and lecturer specialising in fine art landscape photography. His work encompasses both monochrome and colour photography ranging from the wide open landscape to the close up detail of the intimate landscape.

Hugh's personal style is evident in both his monochrome and colour work. His images vary from being dark and dramatic to studies of great refinement and delicacy but there is always a mood and a sense of space and loneliness. The mood comes from his empathy with the landscape and an understanding of the way that light and colour, tone and contrast can affect our emotional reaction. He has a strong sense of design and composition and blends this with careful control of tone or colour to produce moody images that stir the emotions.

He is also a keen observer. His studies of the intimate landscape show his fascination for intricate colours, shapes and patterns which are given his personal interpretation as Nature's metaphors.
He is a successful exhibitor, having won numerous medals at International Salons He was awarded the Fellowship of the Royal Photographic Society in 1980 and the distinction of Master of the Federation Internationale Art Photographique in 1993, an award achieved by less than one hundred photographers worldwide to this day. He is a member of several prestigious groups including 'The London Salon' and the 'Arena'Group of photographers based in the south east of England.

He is known throughout the UK and Ireland as a lecturer and judge and has held personal exhibitions throughout Europe.
