Landscape pro Neil Burnell passes on some tips for capturing magical and atmospheric images in an ancient woodland
INTO THE WOODS

THE PRO NEIL BURNELL CAMERA: NIKON Z 711

Neil left behind a career in graphic design to become a full-time pro photographer. His work has been exhibited far and wide, and he's won a plethora of photography accolades, including the Landscape Photographer of the Year 2020 Black and White category. When he's not hard at work on a project he's running workshops putting together books, and selling prints. His Wistman's Wood photography is well known, so Keith has a unique opportunity to Learn from one of the best: www.neilburnell.com

THE APPRENTICE KEITH MALE CAMERA: NIKON D500

Devonshire-born-andbred Keith used to shoot game. But after his best gun dog passed away he realised his new pup was gun-shy. This persuaded him to put down his gun and adopt a new type of shooting - photography. It wasn't long before he was photographing weddings, and he's since turned semi-pro. The move to Nikon came when he discovered he could pick up a D200 and flash for the price of a digital Minolta, and he's stuck with Nikon ever since.

TECHNIQUE ASSESSMENT

Neil showed Keith how to set up his camera to capture captivating woodland shots

ADDICTED TO BASE

Neil says... I underexpose by up to two stops and work in Manual mode. If you use exposure compensation in Aperture Priority you'll constantly have to alter your ISO, and I want to remain as close to my base ISO as possible. I enable the histogram in Live View, too. as I trust it more than the light meter.

READY, PRESET, GO!

Neil says... I tend to set my own white balance presets via Preset Manual. I'll have one preset that's cooler and one that's warmer, so that I can react depending on the situation. It's important that you always shoot raw, so that if the white balance is off you can easily rectify it in post
