Hi ,
I'm currently stopped for the night in a little Hungarian town in Transylvania during my month-long bike tour through Romania, but I wanted to let you know that my online video course, Outdoor Photography Essentials is now live!!

Let's face it, it's hard to capture great
adventure and action photos, no matter if you're shooting extreme sports or your kid's soccer game. This kind of photography requires a special set of techniques and a comprehensive bag of creative and compositional tricks. If you don't have that stuff down, you'll have trouble nailing great images.
That's why I created this course- to give you the tools and tips you need to make it happen.
During this class, you'll learn the settings you need for great results and how to anticipate potential scenes before they
unfold. Then, you'll find the best adjustments to make in the face of quickly changing conditions like light and moving subjects. You'll also discover the best ways to shoot people and action, so you can capture the power of adventuring in nature.
To begin, I'll show you some important camera settings to check before shooting and how to adjust them for optimal results. I'll also give you some tips for anticipating the potential for a great scene before it even
unfolds!

Then we'll focus
on handling your camera in the field. I'll teach you to capture handheld shots from multiple perspectives, keeping your camera stable and secure the entire time. Then, I'll share pointers for proper exposure, so you can get fantastic results from scenes with high dynamic range. If you've ever wondered whether a DSLR or mirrorless camera is best for you, we'll cover that too.
You'll see how to make effective creative decisions based on light, even if it's tricky light, and I'll even give
you simple ways you can recompose a shot to improve your results.
Using images I've shot in my own travels, I'll illustrate how color, intensity and direction of light changes throughout the day, so you can choose the effect you want. Each of these factors makes a dramatic difference!
I'll also walk you through the process of choosing the right lens, and give you tips to make the most of wide–angle, normal and telephoto lenses. That way you'll always know what you need for a savvy selection. All the while, you'll gain a deeper understanding of selective focus, depth of field, framing and composition, even with difficult action scenes.
It's really exciting to team up with Craftsy, because they approach learning in a way that's unlike any other. With every Craftsy class, you can watch your lessons anytime, anywhere and revisit as many times as you'd like — forever.
