Episode 0062: Interview with Carl E. Heilman II, Landscape Photographer

by Dave Warner on September 7, 2010

LensFlare 35 is a photography podcast brought to you by Dave Warner. This week, Dave interviews Landscape Photographer Carl E. Heilman II. Carl has lived in the Adirondacks in upstate New York since 1973 and has been photographing that wilderness landscape since 1975. His passion for spending as much time as possible in some of the wildest regions of the Adirondacks, soon became a lifelong quest to create images that record the essence of a true wilderness experience, and help convey that feeling to others.

When Carl is not in the office or the garden, or traveling to another wilderness region, he can be found paddling the wild Adirondack waters in his lightweight Hornbeck canoe and in winter, snowshoeing or skiing his favorite Adirondack Mountains.

In this episode, Carl talks the Adirondacks, his best photographic moment, landscape photography tips, how to get a perfect images every time with a DSLR, HDR techniques, shooting with the moon in your landscape, panoramas and a lot more. We created a multi-media show of his images with an explanation of each one with the full podcast interview (above) and our typical show player and download, which is below.

    Great podcast Dave – being an “Adirondack” landscape photographer myself, I have long admired Carl’s work and been inspired by his passion for the region. Also, your points about fine-art landscape photography being about a connection with the viewer (and hopefully buyer) were also accurate, at least in my experience. For the most part, the location of an image is not really important to a buyer, but rather the feeling it creates for them. Thanks again!
