Amateur Photographer Magazine

18 January 2025

As top US photographer Eric Meola shows this week, when we compose our images around colours, the results can be spectacular. We also showcase the striking but heartbreaking work of award-winning Palestinian photojournalist Samar Abu Elouf, and revisit the archive of Weegee, whose gritty black & white images of crime scenes and the sordid underbelly of New York in the 1930s and ’40s made him a legend. Heading over to kit, we test Sony’s latest professional flagship, the Alpha A1 II.
