Exposure is a central topic of the craft of landscape photography, and Randall tackles the challenges of this subject from every angle, from tips on calculating exposures in the field, to achieving correct exposure in high-contrast lighting situations, to the best digital darkroom techniques. The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography is intended for those who already understand the basics of photography and who are ready to master the finer nuances of creating magnificent landscape photographs.

Explore the science behind successful landscape photographs and understand key concepts about geography, optics, vision, and psychology, including:

  • How the position of the sun at sunrise/sunset varies throughout the year, which helps you plan when/where to shoot
  • Optics predict where rainbows will appear, polarizers interact with reflections, where to find spectacular light
  • Use topographic maps and computerized mapping tools to help find promising shooting locations in the wilderness
  • How our visual system analyzes images and the psychology of how we view art

These insights will help you produce successful photographs
