Synopsis

Capture the wonder of nature’s most awe-inspiring moments—through the lens of your camera.

In The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography, best-selling author and renowned wilderness photographer Glenn Randall teaches you how to transform breathtaking visual experiences into powerful, emotionally resonant photographs. Whether you're venturing deep into the backcountry for that once-in-a-lifetime sunrise or perfecting your technique from your own backyard, this updated third edition is your essential guide to mastering landscape photography.

This newly revised edition features:

• All-new imagery and examples throughout the book
• A brand-new chapter: Refining Your Field Technique—with insights on gear, cold weather, safety, and modern mirrorless cameras
• Updated techniques that reflect Glenn Randall’s evolving workflow, including the use of smartphones and mapping apps for field planning

Randall begins with foundational photographic principles, then takes readers deeper into the art of composition—introducing a flexible, three-step approach that moves beyond rigid rules to intuitive creativity. From there, he explores the science behind compelling images, explaining how knowledge of geography, light, optics, and human vision can dramatically improve your results.

Highlights include:

• Understanding the movement of the sun to plan your sunrise and sunset shots
• Using rear-button focus for sharper, more intentional imagery
• Working confidently in extreme environments and challenging light conditions

Whether you're a weekend hobbyist or an aspiring pro, this comprehensive guide will help you bring your photographic vision to life—one breathtaking landscape at a time.

Perfect for fans of National Geographic’s Guide to Landscape Photography, Light on the Landscape by William Neill, and Photography and the Art of Seeing by Freeman Patterson.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Since 1979, Glenn Randall has combined his love of the wilderness with his passion for photography to create stunning landscape images. His intimate knowledge of atmospheric optics, weather conditions, and the landscapes he photographs allows him to find an intersection between magical light and stunning subject matter, which results in exceptional images. He is the author of several books, including the best-selling The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography and Dusk to Dawn: A Guide to Landscape Photography at Night.

Glenn's work has been included in calendars for Audubon, Avalanche, Barnes & Noble, Brown Trout, Sierra Club, Nature Conservancy, and Runner's World. His images have been published in Audubon, GEO, Outdoor Photographer, Outside, SKI, Los Angeles Times Magazine, National Geographic Adventure, New York Times Magazine, and many others. His photographs have also been used by book publishers and corporate clients. At age 56, he has accumulated nearly 1,200 photo credits, including 73 covers, and sold over 10,000 prints.

Glenn has authored 200 magazine articles and nine books, including two books of landscape photographs: Rocky Mountain National Park Impressions and Colorado Wild & Beautiful, both published by Farcountry Press. He recently completed a seven-year project called Sunrise from the Summit, in which he shot the sunrise (and occasionally the sunset) from the summit of all fifty-four Colorado Fourteeners (peaks over 14,000 feet). He lives in Boulder, Colorado.
