Glorious greetings from @funlifedesignlab in Greyt Glorious greetings from @funlifedesignlab in Greyton. Mountain photography is rewarding, but it is also difficult. If you're planning to peak this weekend, keep this in mind. 1. Patience pays off. 2. Light moves differently than at sea level. Time your shots accordingly. 3. Be ready to work for your shots. Comfortable clothes never hurt. 4. Depth is crucial. Unless your shots demand shallow depth of field, it's best to keep your aperture small. 5. Tripods are your best friend. Especially when light is limited. 6. Go long. We're talking 100-500mm. 7. Contrast is king. Think CP filter. 8. Get the emotion. Seasonal elements, human subjects for scale or golden light helps with this. 9. Keep it simple. When mountain formations are complex, your composition doesn't have to be. 10. Respect the mountains. Always. Be safe out there and keep us posted! #ishootwithorms.

Framing your subject within another creates a stro Framing your subject within another creates a strong, graphical composition. The ideal is to use the frame portion to complement and highlight the subject. Here are some tips: 1. Look for ways to shoot through natural frames to highlight your subject. 2. Focus on the subject, not the foreground element which is the frame. 3. Make sure the element being used as a frame isn’t overly bright. 4. Frame something interesting! Thanks for the wonderful inspiration @africanwildlands. #ishootwithorms #photography #tips #composition #goals
Early mornings on the dunes and afternoons spent e Early mornings on the dunes and afternoons spent exploring the canyon. "The middle of the day wasn’t quite as blissful though. The work travel life isn’t as easy in these far out places because the signal is nonexistent (which is perfect if you haven’t scheduled meetings and presentations). After fighting with the wifi for a couple hours (which apparently wasn’t working because of the wind direction), we had to admit defeat.. And exploring a canyon is a pretty good distraction. All our troubles were quickly forgotten when we arrived at this beautiful place." Sometimes you just have to embrace the adventure. Thanks for showing us how it's done @sarahanddean.
