Stories About Photos David Johnston

Ok, I don't want this to be a doomsday description, and it's really not, but landscape photographers can and should be telling better stories rather than only searching for one epic shot per shoot.

So, when I went to Ireland, I didn't take the right clothing, shoes, or basically anything. I did no research and paid for it. But the view at the top was SOOO worth it.

On this episode of the podcast, Dusty Doddridge shares his story about the time he went out to shoot sand dunes in Death Valley National Park and got caught in an epic sand storm.

Did he make it out alive? Well, yes, or else he wouldn't be on the podcast. BUT, did he get the shot? Was his rental car damaged? What almost took his shoulder off?

This is the story behind the community of landscape photographers that never sceses to amaze me. Not only do they constantly try to help, but they can also be your biggest cheer leaders.

Sometimes the stories we love are about the photos we haven't even shot yet. This is a story behind my dream photo of Clingman's Dome at night.

Can photographers be outlaws as well? Typically no. But when it comes to star trail photography I suppose it's possible.
