catcher Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Anyone know of any? I subscribe to National Geographic which is good. I just got a subscription to Nature's Best. I get Outdoor Photographer, which usually has nice pictures but I get tired of the advertisements, er, I mean articles. What other magazines/regular publications have great nature photos, and doesn't need to be a photography magazine necessarily (i.e., Audubon? NAtural History?--I've persued these and they're not bad). Any suggestions? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luminous world Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Arizona Highways is famous for its photography Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemked Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Not a magazine, but the annual Wildlife Photographer of the Year (you can get a copy at www.amazon.com if you are in the States). I actually used these books for my nature photography course. It is very competitive so the books are usually (not all) great photography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill_proud Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Aaron, Plateau Journal, twice a year published by U. of Arizona, Flagstaff. Photographers include Tom Till, Jack Dykinga, George H. H. Huey and Gary Ladd. I was on the supplier list for a short while a few years back but at two issues a year and the high talent pool, I couldn't break in. Magazine is very high quality.

christian deichert Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Steve stole my favorite: <i>Arizona Highways</i>. I never heard of it until I was stationed at Fort Huachuca in 2001. I will never let my subscription lapse. I look forward to receiving it every month (especially here in the monotonous sands of Kuwait). Absolutely fantastic photos, and the writing ain't half bad, either. My latest issue has some "lost" photos Ansel Adams sold to <i>AH</i> years ago that were recently located and printed -- good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary_anthes Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 The Nature Conservancy and Sierra Club have good magazines. The Conservancy, especially, tends to have photos of lesser-known places. Both require you to be a member (contributor). And yes, Ariz. Highways is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian_lyerly Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Virginia Wildlife is a good one. They actually have photography tips in many of their issues, and last months was devoted completely to a photo contest. Plus they use nice thick glossy paper so the images really snap.

catcher Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Thanks for these suggestions, I'll be checking them out. Any others are still welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anand_raghavan1 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 This might be one of the most interesting threads I've seen on photonet for a while. I didn't know about Ariz. Hwys. I must check it out. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phyrpowr Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Smithsonian Magazine, off and on, not really a nature biased mag, but you get their great catalog, and are of course a member of the Smithsonian Institution If you're near a store with a big mag section (e.g., Barnes & Noble), I'd check out the travel mag section too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam_macneil Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I'm quite fond of the British mag, Outdoor Photography (not to be confused with US Outdoor Photographer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drc Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 BBC Wildlife. Outstanding publisher "Tecklenborg" out of Germany produces the highest quality magazine that might only be available in Europe. Google should source the mag. David Crossley/Crossley Photography.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlemire Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I agree with most of the posts here - especially AZ Highways - I believe most (at least some) of their photos come from direct submissions by photographers. Now that I live in AZ and have some shots of natural AZ subjects I am going to try submitting a few. You need to get a submission form from them which requires a simple phone call. One caveat - at this time they are only accepting slides (digital images and negatives are not accepted). I also want to second the suggestion of Outdoor Photography (UK) - much better outdoor photo magazine than any I have seen - I think it blows away Outdoor Photographer (US), though I must admit I don't think that is too difficult. Barnes & Nobles carries it in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
