WILL, SKILL & DOLLAR BILL A creative persons output is limited (or promoted) by three elements. Imagine it being thirds of a creative pie and the more of the pie you have, the better chance you have of creating magic. Will – The get-up-and-go to go out and create imagery. You may not have a budget, you may not have any discernible knowledge or formal training, but if you have the will to get up and go create some images then you are making a great start! Skill - The knowledge you need to understand why images look the way they do, how to control your settings, the lighting, the subject. This transforms ‘taking a picture’ into ‘crafting an image’. Dollar Bill – Whether this is your business equipment budget,…

Photographic Speciality/Style: Landscape/Wilderness Photography Short Bio: I’m a pretty laid-back Aussie, who made landscape photography my full-time career 5 years ago. I live in Te Anau, New Zealand. and have a wife and two young kids. I primarily run photography workshops here in New Zealand and other scenic locations around the world. I have a love for wilderness and particularly the Fiordland landscape, which is in my backyard. and where you’ll commonly find me. How did your love of Photography start? As a teenager, I had an interest in videography. I grew up skateboarding so I would film my friends and edit videos. As I got into my early 20’s I decided to give still photography a try, which happened to be around the same time I discovered Instagram, at…

Believe it or not, we didn't have that much of a winter. Even in Arctic Norway! Since November, 13 consecutive extra-tropical cyclones have brushed the coast of Norway affecting even the coldest places of the country. As a consequence, lots of positive temperatures and rain on top of the snow, somehow destroying the typical arctic wonderland. However in between the lukewarm rainstorms, the cold came back and allowed for short periods of freezing temperatures and snow. In these moments it was important for me to get out there whenever I could and capture all I could get. Cold also meant clearer skies and, as a result, aurora. Nonetheless it was never as easy as that because of the solar minimum we are at. It means lower auroral activity and fewer…

COULD THIS BE AN ASTROPHOTOGRAPHER'S NEW BEST FRIEND? While writing this article, I obviously became quite familiar with the new Canon EOS Ra mirrorless full-frame camera, which I’ll share with you momentarily. I also learned more about the field of astrophotography, which represents a whole galaxy of photographic possibilities. But perhaps the most important thing I’ve learned - at least for the purposes of this article - is that the Canon EOS Ra is not for me. And in fact, unless you’re a pretty hardcore astrophotography enthusiast or aiming to become one, then it’s also not for you. And that’s OK! Canon even makes it very clear that this camera is specially designed for people who will use it to shoot images of the night sky and/or attach it to…
