    Chapter 3 - Form & Flow: www.fototripper.com/store/com...
    While visiting Mayne Island, I deliver the longest landscape photography tutorial you've seen in ages! Covering composition, focus stacking, and even revisiting the same location twice, this photography tutorial shows you my entire thought process when composing a shot.
    Not only do we have arguing seagulls that clearly have relationship issues but we have sea otters (the cats of the ocean) and a wonderful night in the truck camper of destiny.
    In all honesty, I've been struggling with a recent losing streak. After a multitude of failed shoots I've decided to stop trying so hard and have fun with my landscape photography instead. That's not as easy as it sounds.
    Will the sunset deliver the goods or will we have to stick around for sunrise? Will Amanda get to see her whales or will I continue to be the largest leviathan she's ever clapped eyes on?
    Hit play, then like, then watch again.

    Yes, enjoy the journey! Gorgeous sunrise shots but I also loved the first rock images despite the light. The way you worked at getting the composition made me appreciate them even more. This really made me long for the borders to open up since I am nearby in Washington State and love BC. Fun production!

    What a nice treat to explore Mayne Is, Gavin! You have so many neat places to photograph near where you live. I like the image from the first day, gray clouds, smooth water, great rock foreground. But the real payoff was the next morning. What a beautiful mauve sky and you found a good composition. And the image with the shooting right into the sun was great too. I really liked the little jam/jelly house. What a great idea. wish we had some around here. I am so glad you pointed out the importance of having fun with photography. We all could use the reminder.

    I stayed in Vienna for most of last year and they have Gladiola fields with the same 'honesty' system as your Jam Stalls. The prices weren't any cheaper than the shops though so from what I saw people just gave what they felt they could afford. That's what I did too. I doubt the grower was disappointed!

You expertly share your landscaping photography knowledge with your comedic skills - a Frankensteinian combination of Peter McKinnon and a censored Bill Burr.

    I visited mayne years ago, before any serious photography ability was even considered (!), beautiful place. I can recommend kayaking around it. It's small enough to do pretty easily.
