Where light is king, framing is queen and subject is the pawn, put together you have the game of all games. As you said Mads, the techniques in photography are endless, key to success is working out which to use at any given time but ultimately, editing in post often gives that final punch to a composition. A great inclusion in this series, thank you.

6:45 that depends on your interest. To me, leaves and moss can be a valid subject, and in that case, that spot is balanced out by the trail coming from the right, passing behind the tree and going over the leaves and moss.

I think i always fall into the trap of keep stepping back and stepping back some more trying to fit more into the frame which doesn't work. Also looking with the eye then looking through the lens can alter the perspective a lot. Much to learn.

Fantastic video - incredibly informative as ever and delivered with such enthusiasm too. I noticed you weren't quite lost for words as in Glencoe - makes me smile every time I watch that video. As mentioned elsewhere, really useful that you have chosen to include what doesn't work in a photo alongside what does. Alas, the key element to woodland / forest photography is finding some photogenic trees. And decent light helps - oh and I mustn't forget the fog. Hmm - why do these elements always seem to come together when I'm office bound :). Finally, just to say that your videos really do inspire me to get out there - whether an iconic location or just locally, there's always a photo to be had. Thank you !

The dead space isn’t necessarily a bad thing. You can use the dead space in that first one for graphics or something. Especially if you’re going to sell the photos on stock websites. That dead space could actually turn into a selling point to a buyer if they wanted to use it for a thumbnail or poster

When something is to close to the edge of the photo, it feels like it's AT the picture, but not IN the picture. Adding breathing room makes it feel like the object is actually in the picture...if that makes sense.
