Hi ,

"A Manual for Seeing, Composing and Processing Captivating Imagery."
In this comprehensive eBook, I take you behind-the-scenes during the creation of sixteen of my favorite landscape images I’ve made in the past five years.
For each example, I walk you through the entire process. I let you look over my shoulder as I outline the exact gear I had with me, the specific concept I had in mind, my creative approach, potential problems I faced and how I solved them.
I describe my compositional techniques, my lens choice, how I used the light, specific exposure information and any other details that went into the process of bringing the image to life. I also discuss the specific processing techniques I used on a few of the final photos.
A Step-By-Step Recipe Book for Successful Landscapes.
In this book, I'm not just trying to show off my imagery, my goal is to teach you how to create stunning photos on your own. With this in mind, I've formatted this book around what I feel are the essential steps required for any successful photo shoot:
SCENE
GEAR
LIGHT
APPROACH
EXECUTION
ANALYSIS
FINAL THOUGHTS
TAKEAWAYS
For every single image, I walk you through my own creative and technical process as I work through each of these steps. I evaluate each scene, describe the camera gear I had with me, analyze the color, quality and direction of the light, and tell you my specific approach for how I plan to capture each scene. Then I describe in detail
my exact method of execution for turning my creative ideas into a successful image.
At the end of each example, I give you my final analysis for the image and describe the specific elements that I feel give the shot exceptional visual power. In addition, I share my final thoughts, reflecting on the personal, creative or introspective journey that led to the image.
Finally, I leave you with three takeaways. These are specific tips, techniques, compositional methods and ideas that directly contributed to the success of the image. The idea is that you can identify the methods that worked worked, so that you can apply to your own photography.
Reading BEHIND THE LANDSCAPE is like taking a virtual photography workshop with me. You get to look over my shoulder as I work through each scene and explain exactly how I solve specific problems with regards to light and framing. You'll be right there with me as I search for the right lens, focal
length and vantage point and explore a variety of creative techniques that lead to the specific image I had in my mind.
As a special treat, I’ve included a special bonus image. Rather than being another how-to chapter, it’s more of an adventure tale where I take you along with me on one of my aerial photography missions. You get to imagine what it’s like to be sitting next to me in the right seat of my little Cessna as we chase magical light around the sky and capture one of my favorite aerials!
BEHIND THE LANDSCAPE is formatted as 105 horizontal full-page spreads, and it costs $24.95. With your special discount, you'll get the book for only $19.95.
I'm really excited about this new book , because it's my way of bringing your into my world and having you learn a huge number of creative tips and techniques firsthand from me.
I'm confident that you'll get a lot out of BEHIND THE LANDSCAPE. It's full of useful information and and inspiration and written so that you can start applying these techniques right away in your own photography.
I'm excited to hear what you think of it!
As always, thanks so much for your support. Take care and have a great weekend!
