1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,589
now that you've been through the behind
the lens course you have a pretty good
2
00:00:04,589 --> 00:00:08,910
idea of what goes on in the mind of a
professional photographer in the field
3
00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:13,700
when we're creating a photograph we
aren't just pointing the camera toward a
4
00:00:13,700 --> 00:00:17,869
pretty landscape and putting the shutter
release we don't just fire off a series
5
00:00:17,869 --> 00:00:22,750
of frames and hope that we've captured
something appealing we are fully engaged
6
00:00:22,750 --> 00:00:27,970
with the scene in front of us we start
by exploring the area in search of one
7
00:00:27,970 --> 00:00:31,880
element that will make a photo
interesting and when we found it that
8
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:37,260
singular point of interest we build the
photo around it we look for ways to draw
9
00:00:37,260 --> 00:00:42,680
attention to the subject and eliminate
elements that might be distracting we
10
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:47,140
choose our camera settings carefully and
sometimes we use special filters and
11
00:00:47,140 --> 00:00:50,930
other equipment if we feel that they
will contribute to the finished work in
12
00:00:50,930 --> 00:00:56,719
a positive way we work to share a sense
of the location with color and light and
13
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:02,780
to convey a feeling by accentuating the
mood of a place the best photographers
14
00:01:02,780 --> 00:01:07,510
know what they're good at and perhaps
more importantly they know their own
15
00:01:07,510 --> 00:01:11,990
limitations they are always looking for
ways to learn more
16
00:01:11,990 --> 00:01:16,729
to think outside the box to work with
the light or conditions that are
17
00:01:16,729 --> 00:01:21,420
available and to create the best images
they can with the skills and equipment
18
00:01:21,420 --> 00:01:26,240
they have to work with a good
photographer can produce a beautiful
19
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,210
image when conditions are right
20
00:01:28,210 --> 00:01:32,320
a great month can create something
beautiful no matter the weather no
21
00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:38,310
matter the challenges no matter what so
start thinking beyond the scene in front
22
00:01:38,310 --> 00:01:43,259
of you consider the options you have in
your bag from lenses to camera settings
23
00:01:43,259 --> 00:01:45,020
and beyond
24
00:01:45,020 --> 00:01:48,180
think about the angle you choose to
capture the shot
25
00:01:48,180 --> 00:01:51,680
think about the light you have to work
with and how you can use it to your
26
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,149
advantage
27
00:01:53,149 --> 00:01:57,829
pay close attention to your background
and remember that negative space is just
28
00:01:57,829 --> 00:02:02,990
as important as your subject push
yourself beyond your own comfort zone
29
00:02:02,990 --> 00:02:07,399
and experiment with techniques you
haven't tried before the photographic
30
00:02:07,399 --> 00:02:13,560
journey is fraught with challenges but
maybe that's what makes it so appealing
31
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,569
