With vacation season around the corner and some incredible Canon destination workshops coming up to exotic places such as Yellowstone and Olympic National Parks, it’s time to sharpen your landscape skills.

Landscape photography is probably the number one subject for most photo enthusiasts and many assume that capturing a beautiful scenic is easy.  In reality, making a truly dramatic landscape photograph can be one of the most difficult of all photographic pursuits.

Unlike portraits, advertising and sports photography, the landscape photographer is simply a spectator waiting for nature to cooperate in bringing all the elements of a great photo together with the right light and dramatic weather for their subject. 

Our resident pro photographer, Dave Henry, will show you the steps he uses to quickly assess the scene in deciding on framing, composition, filtration and exposure.

Sunrises and sunsets are the prize of any landscape trip. From menus, picture styles and filters, Dave will show you his secrets in creating those jaw-dropping sunsets.

Managing the hand-of-man, weather and obstinate lighting takes a lot of patience and skill. This seminar is designed to set you on the right path and help you understand and manage all the elements that make a great photograph.
