This course follows Joel from start to finish on how he photographed and post processed this black and white image of a saguaro cactus in the Arizona desert. Watch the behind the scenes as he goes into the field using a battery powered strobe to overpower the sun and illuminate the cactus while under exposing the background.

This technique is not reserved to just strobing cactus, but can be used in separating any foreground elements in nature. Starting in ACR (Adobe Raw Converter), Joel covers step-by-step how he does all the post processing from the 32 bit HDR to the Black and White conversion to the final finished image in Photoshop.
