| New: Outdoor Flash Photography In-Depth eBook Posted: 12 Dec 2013 04:44 PM PST The flash unit is a very sophisticated device, yet very valuable to the outdoor photographer. Sometimes nature just does not provide the best light and using flash can improve it. Whether you need flash in combination with the natural light or need to create light where there isn't any, this book is designed to cover all those topics. We approached the author to try to get a deal for our readers and he agreed to throw in a bonus pocket guide to be bundled with the eBook which expires next Friday. Found here: Outdoor Flash Photography eBook & Pocket Guide  New: Outdoor Flash Photography Guide In a perfect world, every photograph we take would have perfect light resulting in the perfect photograph. However, as you know there is nothing perfect in our world, including the conditions in which we photograph Each day we are presented with light in some form, which tells us about the conditions around us. The type and quality of light tell us a lot about our surroundings, such as temperatures, time of day, atmospheric conditions, or the shape and texture of the land we are about to photograph. Most photographers begin using available light, and while this light provides much of what we need to capture photographs, the limitations of our tools may prevent us from capturing the image the way we saw it. Our eyes see differently than our cameras! While high ISOs combined with today's software allows photographers the ability to transform images in amazing ways, the ability to replicate natural light, and all the highlights and shadows, on the computer is difficult at best. Fortunately, the flash unit has been around for a long time and continues to be one of the most useful tools for outdoor photographers. Flash allows us to bring more light to our scenes and subjects. It can be the dominant light source or a secondary light source. It can be used to weaken the contrast created by the natural or ambient light, or it can be used with other flash units to create light where none exists. The Nikon SB900 and Canon 580EXII are covered in great detail from the LCD to the buttons so you will understand what they all mean.

| Striving to Achieve a Higher Level of Landscape Photography (Video) Posted: 12 Dec 2013 01:49 PM PST As photographers, we want to capture the things in life that are closest to our hearts. Often, to find that perfect mix of passion, love and beauty, we have to go out searching for it. But sometimes, if we’re lucky, the chance to photograph something that we love so much, something that just inspires us and cleanses the soul, lays right outside our back door. Such is the case for f-stop pro landscape photographer, Adrian Klein: In this episode of Life in Focus, the crew spends some time with Klein as he wanders through Oregon’s lush natural forests, capturing breathtaking images. As a mountain climber and hiker living in Oregon, Klein has the unique advantage to shoot what he loves and much of his photography comes out of just exploring the area. He makes the journey and adventure Priority One. While the images Klein brings home are stunning, he admits that while there is skill involved, part of a great landscape portrait is about being in the right place at the right time. When he sets out on a hike, he wants the journey to be the adventure and just goes with the flow, rather than searching out the easy shot, like a sunset from an easy location.
Even if Klein does have a plan for his trek and an idea of the image he wants to capture, that doesn’t always work out.

| Long-Distance Hyperlapse Photography Project to Spin Around a Mountain (Video) Posted: 12 Dec 2013 10:39 AM PST Candy Glass Productions has given the dime-a-dozen timelapse video a whole new twist—literally. Check out their recently released hyperlapse presentation (which they’re calling “Spinning a Mountain”) below. It offers a 360-degree view of Oregon’s majestic Mt. Hood: To get the 360-degree spinning effect, a team of photographers hiked to 30 different locations around the mountain, taking photographs from different angles, which were then compiled in such a way to suggest a sense of motion.
To see a similar approach to hyperlapse photography (but with a building instead of a mountain) check out this article. Go to full article: Long-Distance Hyperlapse Photography Project to Spin Around a Mountain (Video) |
