What makes Thomas Joshua Cooper such a justly memorable photographer is his decision many years ago to only photograph landscapes and only with black and white film using one camera and lens. Although born in the USA of mixed Jewish and Cherokee descent, he came to Scotland in 1982 to be the Head of Photography at the Glasgow School of Art and despite his many travels always return to his studio in Glasgow.
