LANDSCAPES

Moments of Inspiration & Revelation

Presentation

Featuring the best of my latest still images, time-lapse sequences and video, I’ll share insights and techniques gleaned during moments of inspiration and revelation, that viewers can use to dramatically improve their own imagery.  Inspiration — when events coalesced to create heartfelt imagery, and revelation — when, in the light of personal discovery, I came across a specific strategy or technique of remarkable artistic effect.

​

With grand landscapes and more intimate scenes, captured day and night, I’ll share the thought processes and field craft that took them to another level, including:

​

Lessons in the Art of Seeing

Possibilities presented under specific weather & lighting conditions

Using light and shadow to add depth and drama

Articulating what we perceive and feel, then transferring that into imagery

Compositional choices – visual flow, image design, compelling vantage points

Exploring with telephoto lenses

White balance selection

Color and textural contrasts

Enhancing landscape colors with pure whites and blacks

Fall foliage – converting the brilliant colors to black and white

What video and time-lapse can teach us about shooting stills

Painterly landscapes using impressionistic techniques, in-camera and beyond

​

Sometimes inspiration comes in post-production.  I’ll share processing lessons on creating a light path to guide viewers’ eyes, artistic dodging and burning, selective color and contrast control, and more.

​

An ambitious project.  A monumental presentation.  Fresh.  Creative.  Informative.
