The importance of visualization: Landscape tips on location with Huntington Witherill

 

 

Photographer and educator Huntington Witherill has produced a very wide range of photographic work over the course of his career, including landscape photography. In the video below, he goes shooting with Marc Silber and shares how he is processing the scene and what he needs to do to capture the shot he is visualizing.

The practice of visualizing your images is not a new concept, but it's a valuable task that is easy to overlook. Not only is it important to consider what you want your image to look like on the camera, it's also vital that you consider how you want the final image to look after you've edited it in your software of choice.
