Stephen Ring is an internationally renowned artist and freelance professional photographer and publisher specialising in North Devon and Cornish coastlines.
He combines visual harmony with attraction and thus re-creates the striking, dramatic continuously changing coastline as seen on his website. Here you will find over 2,000 stock images which are added to daily.

Stephen produces all artworks in his own print studio and works to the highest qualities and standards and is a member of the Fine Art Trade Guild. All works of art are treated as fine art prints and not photographic reproductions. This includes framed prints; canvases and one-off original works of art. Thus his work has enhanced the living and working environment of many establishments and his craft has been used in corporate sales ranging from BAA to P&O as well as business of all shapes and sizes, galleries, interior designers and individual sales.

Architecture, Interiors, Landscape and Creative Photography

In a new website, photographer Marc Goodwin exhibits more than 150 images in 20 galleries of work shot over 3 continents since 2001. The site has a strong visual emphasis on signature architectural sites, luxury interiors, urban design, masterplanning and regeneration projects. The site, www.marc-goodwin.com, includes landscapes ranging from iceland's lava fields, glaciers and geysers to Mexico and California's deserts. Also featured here are images that track hours of time and compress them into a single image, showing light in an previously unseen manner. Lastly, there are works that look at the repeated human form as an architectonic element to contribute to placemaking.

Photographer and stock owner Miro Vrlik is pleased to announce the launch of his all-new website http://www.fotoroad.com for Rights Managed and Royalty Free images, now featuring personal image collections from travel, still life, food and more.
