We’re excited to share Issue 13 of Captivating Photography Journal with you – and what better day to release it than the first day of winter!
This edition is a visual and inspirational feast, filled with fresh perspectives, practical tips, and the magic of the unexpected:
Tara Swan shares her expert advice on bird photography, with clear, actionable tips you’ll want to try on your next outing.
Simon Glass reflects on his personal journey into bird photography and what keeps him inspired behind the lens.
Peter Laurenson takes us deep into the remote backcountry to Gomorrah Biv, capturing not just the landscape but the experience of exploration.
We explore how using surprise and unpredictability in your photos can elevate them to something unforgettable.
And of course, we showcase the incredible work from our Excio community in the latest challenge highlights – a celebration of creativity, curiosity, and seeing the world with fresh eyes.
This issue is all about staying curious, trying something new, and being open to the beauty in unexpected places.
Happy reading and photographing!

The Captivating Photography Journal Team
