Timing and Weather
weather conditions and light can have a big impact on creating minimalist images, whether it's fog or snow or just overcast conditions. We're choosing the time of day so that the light teachers subject, just write all of these things can be great tools for a minimalist photographer, as a landscape and outdoor adventure photographer. I rely on weather forecasts and apps on my phone for a lot of the work that I do. Some of the apps that I like to use our photo pills, Windy dot com. I have a couple of night sky apps, Aurora forecasts, but mostly I rely on local forecasts and local knowledge going out and visiting the same locations over and over again is going to give you a much better idea of what the conditions are typically like and where the subjects are going to be that you might want to shoot when the light or the weather is right.

Lovely and information. The information was relevant and ended up helping a good bit.

Very interesting class, in a very unusual location (Arctic), which blended together to give a top notch class. I learned a lot about Minimalism as applied to photography, and Minimalism as applied to post-processing. Curtis is engaging while teaching and demonstrating on site, or back in his "office". I really enjoyed this class. Thank you Curtis.
