Episode 2: This week Brad heads out to photograph shorebirds and ends up working with Common Terns in flight in some gorgeous glowing backlight. Ray is still hanging out with Atlantic Puffins in Newfoundland and shares about recording a video lesson and shares a lot of new Puffin photos shooting close portraits, wide angle scenic photos and gets caught in the pouring rain with the puffins! The show ends with a discussion about shooting for low-key or black-background photos and shows some examples of how to do that.
