Landscape Photography: Maximising keeper rate at epic locations Easterhorn, Iceland As an amateur landscape photographer, opportunities to visit epic locations such as Lofoten, Iceland or the Scottish highlands are limited. When an opportunity for travel arises, an overly ambitious plan is often drafted in an effort to squeeze every last drop of potential from the…
Proceeding to the copse of 5 trees beyond the crossroad, a haunting atmosphere descended through fog.

Each pursuit reveals the same…

Every day was an adventure on that trip with new locations to wow at every turn.The north of Spain was demanding attention and we were an appreciative audience. A road…
