Of course, you can also crop an image to a different aspect ratio in post production, such as in Lightroom or Photoshop. So, what are the most…

We Speak To Self-Taught Landscape Photographer, Ryan Buchanan, Whose Surreal And Bold Images Really Stand Out From The Crowd Photographic Speciality/Style: My interest has always been solely landscape focused.

That’s a bit of shame, frankly. The world could use more pretty things, and your pictures can go a long ways to adding life and interest to your house or apartment. However, there’s an option out there that avoids a lot of the work of printing…

Tyler gives us a behind the scenes look The Island of Hawai’i, the largest of the archipelago, only continues to grow larger. Two of its five volcanoes remain active, with Kilauea continuing to erupt and add mass to the island today. This video chronicles a short journey through the various terrains and astonishing landscapes of Hawai’i, one million years in the making. Accompanied by classic Polynesian drums, this minute and a half piece takes us through the Northern Coast’s spectacular valleys, above the clouds on the summit of Mauna Kea, and into the fires of Kilauea.
