February 2020 – Waterfall, Winter Photos, Snow, Color Space, Photoshop Tips

Well, It’s February and it’s still cold outside. For some unexplainable reason, photographers are still wanting to go outside and shoot in the snow and cold. So, for this month, I’ll feed that desire with a few Cold Weather photographer articles.

First up is Blake Rudis from f.64 Academy. This month Blake does a video tutorial on Winter Waterfall Photography. If you remember, Jim Pierson, Mickey Rountree and Rosemary Williams got some great shots of

Bald River Falls totally frozen. You can see Blake’s video here:

We’ll add to that an article by Colin McDonald titled “Tips for Taking Great Winter Photos”. Here Colin goes into Preparing for a winter by covering Planning, Timing, Setting Up and Equipment Care.

Finishing the snow off, I hope it’s warmer next month, here’s an article by Francesco Carucci called “Snow Photography: 5 Quick Tips”.

In January, we had a great prestation from Mark and Mitch Lakey from Art Warehouse on how to work with a color printer for our digital images. One of the items they discussed is color space. Something you may have noticed in your own pictures is that when you export an image out of Photoshop or lightroom, It may look like the colors have changed and that’s not what you want to send to the printer. Here’s a short from PiXimperfect that explains exactly what happens and how you can prevent it in the future.
