This is a re-edit of a 5-image panorama of the Jubilee Creek waterfall... which I captured way back in October 2018.
I've learned a lot about landscape photography since I first captured, stitched, edited, and then shared this panorama.
Here are the three most important lessons that I've learned about taking photos in the Knysna forest since then...
1. All modern cameras are able to accurately capture the relative luminosity between the brightest and darkest parts of any scene.
2. All modern cameras are hopeless at capturing the entire dynamic range of most (if not all) forest scenes, especially on bright sunny days.
3. All modern cameras are absolutely useless at accurately capturing colour. Auto White-Balance seldom produces better results in this forest.
I've also learned some new stuff about the "Physics of Light" in the past few months, while preparing for my presentation to the Cape Photographers Congress in Calitzdorp on the 1st of May.
If you'll be attending this congress, then here are 3 reasons why you might want to come and listen to my talk...
1. I will be sharing the most valuable lesson that I've ever learned about editing my landscape photos (don't kink your slinky).
2. I will also share all the reasons why I never shoot with a GND, Polarizer, or any other glass filters over my lens (no surprises there).
3. I will take you out to dinner (restaurant of your choice) if you can honestly say that you didn't learn anything new from my presentation.
Have a lekker (Easter) weekend everyone!
