Great covers are inevitably about attention-grabbing eye contact, and if those eyes happen to belong to an inquisitive seal pup, then the effect can be even more mesmerising! The shot, by acclaimed natural world photographer Cristina Mittermeier, ties into our big Portfolio interview, which in turn highlights the fact that Cristina will be one of the headline speakers at the upcoming Photo and Video Shows that are taking place at the NEC shortly. We’re also running a substantial preview of the show to give the heads-up on what to expect from this absolute feast of photography, from the major industry players who will be showing their latest products, through to the big-name photographers sharing their stories and spectacular work across dozens of primarily free events. Also in this issue we’re publishing our latest ‘Top 50 UK Wedding Photographers’ list, which always creates a major buzz in the industry. It’s a chance to see who is currently red-hot in this sector and to find out which new names have got themselves noticed by our expert panel. Another not-to-be-missed feature is our mega laptop overview and Buyers’ Guide, and you simply can’t afford to miss this if you’re a professional that’s regularly on the move and carrying out post-production work on huge image and video files. Everything you need to know is in here, along with some recommendations of products you should be seriously considering. Our Project feature showcases Robin Savage’s striking portraits of the remaining veterans of 6th Airborne Division, who were the first boots on the ground as the campaign began to liberate mainland Europe. We’re also looking at the revival of interest in podcasting and are reviewing some of the latest products making it easier than ever to get involved in this exciting area, while our ‘Second Time Around’ feature gives one wedding photographer the chance to pair his Canon EOS R5 with an R6 for the day. So much to read about, so dive in and have a look around!
