BEYOND THE GRAND LANDSCAPE - Sarah Marino and Ron Coscorrosa

ARE YOU LOOKING TO DIVERSIFY YOUR PORTFOLIO, CONNECT MORE DEEPLY WITH NATURE, AND ENJOY YOUR TIME OUTSIDE MORE?
IF SO, THIS EBOOK IS FOR YOU.

Once you start looking beyond the grand landscape, the natural world is full of fascinating smaller scenes—intimate landscapes, abstractions of natural subjects, plants, trees, and tiny details. We developed this ebook to give you the creative and technical tools to expand your photographic practice to include nature's smaller scenes, with the ideas and exercises applicable to any landscape.

The ebook focuses on developing a mindset conducive to connecting with smaller scenes, seeing more deeply, building your composition skills, learning to work with all kinds of natural light, and expanding your technical skills.

BEYOND THE GRAND LANDSCAPE INCLUDES:
Key creative concepts and field practices to help you discover and photograph a diverse array of small scenes

Practical, hands-on exercises to facilitate your learning and the application of the concepts in the ebook

Essential field techniques for creating intimate landscapes, natural abstracts, macro, flower, and plant photographs using a simple kit of equipment

A review of the foundations of photographic composition, working with natural light, and technical fundamentals

Inspiring interviews with four talented photographers, each with a deep portfolio of intimate landscapes and small scenes (Justin Reznick, Alex Mody, Robin Black, and Greg Russell)

Case studies using twelve of our photos, including a discussion on composition, light, mood, our thought process while in the field, and post-processing choices for each

Photo processing examples, including three start-to-finish examples

More than 250 photos to demonstrate these concepts in a practical, inspiring, and immediately applicable manner.

WHO WILL GET THE MOST FROM THIS EBOOK?
This ebook focuses on the creative aspects of nature photography—seeing opportunities in nature, your mindset, composition, and working with all kinds of natural light. While we discuss some technical aspects of photography, this is not the focus. If you are looking for instruction on the basics of digital photography, like exposure settings and basic processing skills, this is probably not the ebook for you. If you are looking to add diversity to your photo portfolio, want to connect more deeply with nature, and are open to thinking differently about nature photography, we think you will get a lot from this ebook.
