Nothing can be more frustrating than perfecting your landscape image on screen and then getting a disappointing print from your printer or back from your lab. Join host Jeff Lazell as he takes you from capture to edit to output and explains the tips, gear and techniques to ensure you get a beautiful print that reflects the image on your monitor.

Jeff will cover color and exposure at capture, creating and using monitor and printer profiles and the soft-proofing process for some of Ilford’s new Fine Art papers so that you can produce great prints every time.

Joe Brady's goal is to create an image that is much more than just a snapshot of a scene. He wants to capture the feeling of what he sees and invite the viewer to enter each image and take time to explore. He has been very fortunate to travel to many beautiful locations and experience both the small details and the majesty of great vistas.
