25.04 Hans Strand - Waterscapes

Water has 3 ways or phases to show itself: as solid, liquid and gas. In landscape photography water is present in almost everything we shoot. It can diffract sunlight in a piece of ice, plunge as a glacier river into a gorge or fill the sky with clouds. Especially photographing water in motion is subject enough for a lifetime. A photographer's task is always to make his/her interpretation of what is in front of the camera. Waterscapes are no exceptions and when in motion, your choice of shutter speed is an important ingredient of your interpretation. In my presentation I am showing my way of depicting the subject of water, including choice of shutter speeds, how to do manual focus stacking of riverscapes, using water as reflectors, ice landscapes, aerial photography of riverscapes, how to shoot waterfronts, how to include weather in your photography etc.
