Including man-made objects in our landscape photographs is sometimes quite challenging! I personally find it to be one of the hardest things to do well in this genre of photography; however, today's guest on my podcast, Michael Blanchette, has mastered it.  On this week's episode, we discuss: How Michael transitioned from his career in software engineering to landscape photography. Michael's proclivity for including "the hand of man" in his landscape photographs. Michael's approach for including man-made objects in his photographs. What Michael loves most about landscape photography. Michael's approaches to planning his photography shoots. The tools that Michael uses to maximize his success as a photographer. The pros and cons of social media and how it has changed over the years for Michael. Michael's thoughts on compositing. And a lot more!  Other topics/links discussed on the podcast this week: Support the podcast on Patreon. The Natural Landscape Photography Awards. Nature Photographer's Network - get 10% off using the code "FSTOP10". Watch podcast episodes on YouTube, where we overlay photos with our conversation via video.  Here is who Mike recommended on the podcast this week: Betty Wiley. Tom Mackie. Jeremy Noyes.
