Posted: 09 May 2013 06:13 PM PDT All of us have seen timelapse photography sequences. Timelapses of sunsets, construction, the Aurora Borealis, etc. They’re beautiful, often very dramatic, and the best part is that they’re not very hard to do. Potentially, they can get very difficult depending on the changing light and you subject(s). But capturing a basic timelapse is actually very simple. Photographer Richard Harrington goes through all the basics you need to get started taking your own timelapse videos. Everything from the equipment you’ll need, to controlling the light, to making your videos look great in post (for those of you reading this by email, the seminar can be seen here): Basic equipment you will need:

The Path of an Outdoor Photographer Posted: 09 May 2013 01:36 PM PDT For Tim Kemple, becoming an outdoor photographer was a natural transition into adulthood. He grew up in the mountainside, spending his free days exploring with his family and friends. Upon graduating from university, he took up residence in an old, used RV he purchased on eBay and roamed freely across the country. Kemple documented his journey, photographing his rock climbing friends, and capturing the natural beauty he found during his travels. With an apparent knack for photography, Kemple began getting work as a commercial photographer. Listen to his inspiring story here (for those of you reading this by email, the video can be seen here): Broadening his horizons, Kemple was spending time in Chamonix, France when he received a telephone call from Black Diamond, a leading outdoor outfitters manufacturer, asking if he would be available to take some photographs for an upcoming campaign.
For Further Training on Outdoor Photography:There is no single recipe for a great outdoor image. Every scene is different, and each photographer employs a unique style and creative spin on the subject. But there are some key ingredients that this new book covers. In this guide, the author takes you behind-the-scenes for 12 adventure and outdoor images. Remember to use the discount code picturecorrect20 for a discount.

The Difference Between Incident and Spot Meters Posted: 09 May 2013 10:30 AM PDT Hand-held light meters may seem like old technology compared to our modern-day DSLRs, but they are still widely used by many photographers and most cinematographers. Light meters give an accurate reading of the surrounding light so that you can properly exposure your scene. However, there are different types of light meters which can give you different readings depending on the situation. Each has their own purpose and you may not rely on a single type to determine the exposure for every scene (for those of you reading this by email, the video can be seen here): Though this video opens much like a political ad campaign and ends like an episode of Mr. Rogers, it provides some very important and useful knowledge. Light meters are poorly understood by those who don’t use them or understand the Zone System, but Vargo does a good job of explaining the differences between incident and spot meters and how each can be used successfully. Incident meters are great for sunny days and situations in which your subject is partly in light and partly in shadow because it reads the light through a 3D dome. A flat disk reading works poorly in these situations because it is either all in shadow or all in light (Via Petapixel). The spot meter is perhaps the best because you can simply point it at the area for which you want to properly expose as neutral, and it is great when your subject is far away or in a very complex lighting situation.
