You need to consider how best to carry all that gear, how to keep yourself warm, dry and safe, and you need to think about the location before you set out.

The second section helps the photographer hit the ground running, offering different approaches for a variety of landscape types, times of day, atmospheric conditions and seasons. The book then finishes on maximising the results, and from in-camera creative effects to advanced post-processing techniques.
