Photographing the World: Japan mit Elia Locardi

The way Elia explains his composition process while actually standing in the shot is what really made it click for me. I've already started seeing better light and framing in my own cityscape photos.

The behind-the-scenes footage of Elia navigating crowded temples at golden hour is worth the price alone, and his breakdown of composition in real time finally clicked for me. My street shots went from snapshots to intentional frames within a week of watching.

I've shot landscapes for years and still picked up tricks from the cityscape segments, especially how he handles shooting into the sun without losing detail. The Japan locations alone made it worth it, but the editing workflow is what I keep coming back to.
