Hi Keith - I am also based in the UK. Don't have any information on particular websites but can definetely recommend that you go to the specialist photography bookshops in London - Zwemmers is the best by far, but look also in the Photographers Gallery and Magma. All of these bookshops will have work by large format workers from Eugene Atget to Josef Sudek,Carleton Watkins to Walker Evans, Andreas Gursky to Elger Esser, and many more contemporary picture-makers. Don't leave out the 'old chestnuts' Weston and Adams, as a previous reply suggested. Their work is necessary reading I would suggest - for true knowledge of the range of work. Weston was contemporary too in his time, some might even say revolutionary, so at least make sure you see the work without prejudice. There are also lots of LF photographers in UK, covering a broad range of work from fine-art to commercial landscape and architectural photography. Try looking up people like Jem Southam, Thomas Joshua Cooper, Jim Cooke, Harry Cory-Wright, Joe Cornish etc. for a range of practitioners in landscape work. Thanks and best wishes.....
