Hi,

one of the leading British landscape photographers is Fay Godwin, who
has published many books. She has a book out at the moment which is a
retrospective to accompany a recent exhibition, called 'Landmarks'.
It's not a technical how-to book, but the work is very beautiful and
very subtle, mostly b&w.

Two books of landscape photography which I enjoy very much, but which
are not traditional landscape at all, and again are not how-to books,
are 'Magnum Landscape' and 'Landschaften' by Henri Cartier-Bresson.
If you're imbued in the traditional way of landscape photography they
may change your way of thinking about it.
