Capturing & Editing Great Skies

Saturday, September 26th ZOOM Webinar with Rick Burress of Artistec.

A Great Sky can transform an ordinary photograph into an image with impact, emotion, and atmosphere.

But capturing those skies—and knowing how to make them look their best in post-processing—takes more than simply pushing a Saturation slider.

In this Saturday’s ZOOM webinar, we’ll explore the art and technique of capturing skies with impact, from the moment you press the shutter to the final color grade.

The Secret To The Perfect Sunset

What makes one sunset photograph spectacular while another looks flat?

We’ll look at the timing, light, exposure, and atmospheric conditions that can make all the difference—and how to be ready when the sky suddenly comes alive.

It’s Not Just About Sunset

We’ll explore the unique photographic opportunities presented by:
• Sunrise
• Sunset
• Moonset
• Golden Hour
• Blue Hour
• Astronomical Twilight
• Nautical Twilight
…Understanding these different periods of light can completely change the way you approach landscape, architectural, travel, and outdoor photography.

The goal isn’t simply to capture a sky, it’s to capture a sky that makes people stop, look, and feel.
