- BBC Radio 4
"I’m convinced that to look back like this, while always in part an act of grief, is first and foremost a celebration. The past, humming with the attention we give it, repays us in kind - by reminding us of how far we’ve come. Now, and perhaps for a while yet, this will be our challenge, to take solace in memory."
- Cameron Zeyd Lange
Los Angeles, May 2020
During lockdown in London (having printed Mexico and replotted our issues dedicated to Greece and Wales) I found myself desperate to create. It wasn't about making the lockdown time count, more about finding ways to slow down, look back and seek beauty - and to offer a platform to some of the creatives who have been so generous with their time and talent over the years. And so the team and I began work on Lodestars Anthology Postcards - a 144 page photo book featuring archival work from across the world, paired with musings on life, travel and the wonders of photography.

In ‘Polar Shadows’, Vincent Colliard and Caroline Côté face the long, brutal night of the Arctic winter with little beyond their reliance on one another to keep them going. Mónica Fuentes and Alberto Ojembarrena dig deep and trust in each other’s capabilities when trekking through a seldom-hiked region of Iceland, and Tamara Lunger and Simone Moro touch the very limits of human endurance while attempting the first winter crossing of two 8,000m Himalayan peaks – an expedition that changes Tamara’s life.
Join in an exploration of what it means to survive, and to accomplish things greater than ourselves, in this issue of Sidetracked.
