Ep 60 - Exploring Landscape Photography from the Sea with Steve Belasco

This week I'm joined by Steve Belasco talking about his unique coastscapes where he captures landscape images from the sea!

I first saw Steve’s work in a pub when I was on holiday in Dorset earlier this year. What I saw was a series of intriguing images of the coast of Dorset taken from a boat on the sea.  They were unique and interesting so  I spoke to the barman and luckily he had one of Steve’s business cards behind the bar.

When I got home I contacted Steve and he agreed to be my guest for this week’s episode.  His career spans several decades from his days as a newspaper photographer through his paparazzi and sports photography years to freelancing and eventually to what he now loves doing; showing people the Jurassic Coast from a very different view point.  Everyone has seen Durdle Door and many of the iconic locations from the land, nut few have photographed it in the way that Steve is doing.

He has published a number of books of his coast scape photography and has just published a new one which we talk about in the show.

We also touch on why he gave up newspaper photography, how he manages a camera and a boat at the same time and his work in magazine production and his association with the Jurassic Coast Trust along with a whole lot more 

I hope you enjoy his fascinating story!
