Boats under clouds


It's amazing what a difference having just a few clouds in a photograph can make.

The Long Walk Home


Including at least one person in a photograph will help tell a story and give your images a sense of scale. Always something to consider.

No Expectations


Road trips are a great way to spend the day and see new things to photograph. If you approach a trip with no expectations, you may just end up with a treasure load of images.

Glowed like burning coal


Nature is kind in the use of complementary colors. Take advantage of that kindness.

Rock N Roll


If you want a challenge try and photograph a sailboat race.

Your subjects are moving, which means that you're more than likely not to use a tripod.

More often than not the sailboats will be white, so you'll need to have the exposure settings down.

Boat races are in groups, so, it's up to you whether you want a cluttered composition or single boats. This will keep you on your toes.

And lastly, unless it's obvious you're after a certain look, keep your horizon straight.

Just a few things to keep in mind.
