  • This is St Magdalena and it is one of the best places for Dolomites photography. There are two different churches here that draws photographers from around the world to St. Magdalena.
    Here is how to use a graduated neutral density filter for landscape photography for sunset photos. This video was filmed on location at Saint Magdalena (St. Maddalena) in the Dolomites of Italy where I photographed the St. Johann and St. Maddalena churches with the Seceda Dolomites in the background.
    My name is Tim Shields and I am a landscape photographer from White Rock, BC, Canada. You will see how I used a graduated neutral density filter to darken the bright mountains in the background of this photo shoot. Camera settings are SO important! There are just two goals:
    1. Correctly exposed photo, and
    2. Sharp photo.
    Get these two things right, and you will have a photo you can work with in post.

      If you still know the name of the road and the farm Tim was next to when he shot the second photo with the church and the Dolomites, could you please tell me? 🙏🏼 We‘re in Südtirol right now and would like to walk up to that place, too. Thank you so much in advance!

      @@gabrielle9191 The name of the road is Magdalenaweg. Where he stopped at the sheep, there is a road to the right that leads to the church, but if you continue straight you will cross a small bridge and the road turns left - at that area look for a small foot path to your right that goes up the hill - that is the spot to get the "famous" picture of the dolamites. Enjoy your time there. I've been to many places but that is our most favorite of all!

    Once again, a good video. Love the story on how you arrive early to locate the best position and get ready for the short window for the best lighting during the sunset. A good demonstration of how to use the graduated neutral density filter.

    A fantastic result Tim - and it does emphasize the pre-work that is often needed to get a great result . Well done , explained and executed.
    Even loved that first church pano in the harsh light - sure, the golden hour light is always wonderful, but other lighting conditions are enjoyable as well :)
    Thanks for sharing Tim - must have been a great trip

    Really nice!!! When I was at the 1st church a year ago, I was very disappointed about the little space you have to move around as obviously there have been too many tourists that's why this spot got minimized to the designated photo spot only. Very sad but it seems that too many visitors forced the farmer to do something about people walking over their land and property....

    This is awesome Tim, I’m so glad I bumped on your video. Dolomite has been on my bucket list for such a long time. Your video will help me a lot to plan ahead of time soon as traveling to Italy comes possible. Keep it up and I’ll follow you.

    The main sobject on background are not seceda, but the odle group; seceda is the smallest on the right wich is a nice spot to shoot the odle!
    Same as japanese... they shoot all the time, but they dont really know wath they are shooting!
    And also i dont understand wath you plan and resource for mounths; milions of people shoot place like santa maddalena, odle or braies from the exatly same spot.. that does not need plan and resource, that only need to be like japanese and copy.
