Episode 57: Today I sit down with California-based professional landscape photographer and educator, Michael Frye, to chat about:
- His early days working at the Ansel Adams Gallery and who were some of his sources of inspiration
- What the art and craft of landscape photography means
- How both light on the landscape and the light from within can evoke emotions and moods in landscape photography
- The difference between developing your vision as a photographer versus a personal style
- Creating personally expressive photographs from iconic locations
- Why do we photograph nature?
- The power of observation and releasing expectations
- Working with the light you have to create mood
- Balancing simplicity and complexity
- What makes a great photograph
- And a lot more!
