All landscape photographers have at some point endeavoured to capture the truly awe-inspiring power of nature, whether its the effects of the earth s volcanic nature, or the power of a terrifying storm whipping through the mid-west, or the majesty of the Severn bore. The book describes how you can find and capture all of nature s most dramatic conditions, including flowing volcanic lava, tornados, cloud formations and crashing waves. The book is divided into chapters tackling each of the ancient  elements , and further divided into specific events. For all of these extreme conditions, there is a complete photographic guide, with practical advice on camera care (and safety), photographic advice on exposure and composition, and processing advice that will make your picture stand head-and-shoulders above the competition. There is also a chapter on creating the best quality prints, showing and sharing them, finding a buyer for them, and a gazetteer of locations so you can follow in the photographer s footsteps. Wherever you tread, this book will help you make your photos more exciting, from the weather in your back yard to your pictures of that trip-of-a-lifetime you ve been planning.
