Summary

Welcome to what I am calling "Pictures In Your Mind". The idea is I describe in as much detail as possible an image in the hope you can visualize the image in your mind based on how i'm describing it.

My goal with this is to help you think about the details in the images you plan on capturing or are capturing. I want you to hear what I am saying the settings are, what the lighting is, where the subject is, where the details are and build the picture in your mind all before I show you the image.

It's all about painting the picture in your mind, wether it's my photo or a photo you want to capture or a photo that's presenting itself.

picture in your mind where I describe in great detail or as in much detail as I can a picture that I

and look at the actual image I am describing.

1:24.5

Not that that's going to help you, but it's going to give you a little bit of context. We've got a Nikon D-810, which is full frame. I shot with the 24 to 702.8 Nikon at 60 millimeters. So you can start to get an idea based off of the millimeters of what we're going to be looking at. So understanding that 14 millimeters is ultra wide angle and 300 millimeters is much tighter. This is 60. Your eyes see at 50.

1:47.0

So take that into consideration when you're building this image.
