ICELAND, A Monograph – The Print & The Process is the latest eBook by David duChemin. The Print & The Process series is the perfect format to show David’s photographic vision and creative process behind his recent trip to one of the world’s most stunning places. Moved by the incredible landscapes, the vastness of the open spaces, and the extreme weather, David created photographs that first and foremost inspired him.
ICELAND, A Monograph, is a showcase of exceptional photographs and it holds nothing back with respect to how the images were created. This eBook is the first look at 39 of the images David created in Iceland. The curtain is pulled back on technique – like how he used three different ND filters to work through an exposure problem, as well as the more internal processes related to creation – like finding inspiration and working through the frustrations of finding one’s vision. The process and thinking behind those photographs are explained from a technical angle and the discussion of post-processing includes two free downloadable Adobe Lightroom Presets. For you travelers, David also briefly discusses logistics involved in the travel and supporting the digital workflow while tenting his way through Iceland.
For those of you who like landscape photography will surely love this eBook, after reading this eBook, I began to fall in love again with landscape photography, even though not everyone get a chance to visit Iceland but I’m very sure the information in this eBook is priceless. David share his few tips and trick using ND filters, how to get most of it, how to get the best exposure and how valuable it is to have a sturdy tripod. Personally I rarely used a tripod since I don’t shoot landscape but after reading this eBook, I feel that I need a tripod, I’ve a great idea, combining a landscape and people or portrait.
David words is really an inspirational, there is so much philosophy, I like playing out with Photoshop but there is certain things that Photoshop can’t do or it takes a lot of time to do it but with great tips from David, you will hardly need a Photoshop, ND filters will do most of the job and the good news is, you will spent more time shooting, instead of editing.
I wish I could tell more but just head over to Craft And Vision and with just as little as USD5 you will get all the inspiration, few tips and trick that can be use for your photographic vision. Like what David duChemin said, “Gear is Good but Vision is Better”.
