David is an expert hobbyist photographer whose reputation for beautiful images has landed him workshops & Skype calls teaching photography throughout the year while he keeps a full time day job.
After David shares with us his three favorite Landscape Photography areas and tips for newbs on how to take the most advantage of these areas, we learn from David a great perspective on light. How to work with it, anticipate it and he names several situations that should be considered "epic light" even though it isn't the classic blown up sky.
Then David completely turns 180-Degrees and shares with us one of the most envious tales I have ever heard about epic light out at Factory Butte! His image actually has a Rainbow perfectly symmetrical arching over Factory Butte with a sky crazy pink!

What an amazing shot! Dang we really are jealous!
Beyond the amazing image, David shares with us the juggling act he was going through while trying to capture this shot and the endurance and optimism required of him and his friend Paul Rojas to even STAY in the Factory Butte area; especially after what happened to them the night leading up to this sunrise!
Lastly, I share the Instagram message attached to that image from David that talks about a principle that what we know as "epic light" is completely relative and will change as you gain more experience in Landscape Photography.
