Amazing and beautiful landscapes are all around us; they are a joy to experience, but a challenge to capture in a simple photo.

From complicated cameras to challenging environments, several obstacles stand in the way of recording that stunning landscape.

This class is designed to explain the tools and techniques required for succeeding in this inspiring but demanding discipline. With the visual learner in mind, this class utilizes illustrations, animations, and of course lots and lots of photos, from local parks to iconic destinations around the world.

  • Key equipment for a versatile and compact field kit
  • Exposure guidelines for a variety of subjects
  • Focus techniques for challenging situations

The tools, techniques, and thought process of a landscape photographer is fully covered in this 5-hour class. An extensive color handout is provided which includes all key topics and specific learning points along with dozens of photos from the in-class presentation.

This amazing and ever changing world of ours is just waiting for your unique eye to come and capture it. With your newfound knowledge and skills you’ll see the world in a whole new way, and your photos will reflect it in outstanding images.
