Earlier this week we brought you an unconventional beginners guide to minimalist black-and-white photography, demonstrating how restraint and simplicity can deliver landscape images with greater impact<\/a>. We’re following up on that lesson today with an interesting video that applies these same principles to photographing birds and other wildlife subjects in the field.<\/p>\n

Instructor Mario Kilian is a globetrotting German pro<\/a> with a portfolio full of dramatic imagery of our feathered friends. This concise seven-minute episode describes a straightforward approach for those situations in which less can definitely be more.<\/p>\n

Kilian covers a wide range of concerns when minimalism is the name of the game, including gear recommendations, appropriate camera settings, and important shooting techniques. Here’s how he summarizes the video: “Whether you’re a seasoned photographer or just starting out, this masterclass will help you see birds and their surroundings in a whole new way.”<\/p>\n

Kilian begins with an overview of the concept that involves eliminating unwanted distractions while emphasizing simplicity and wide-open open spaces in a way that immediately draws attention to birds, whether they’re perched on a limb or on the wing. Techniques include isolating the subject against a plain background like a simple sky or a smooth body of water.<\/p>\n

As he says, “minimalism isn’t just about fewer elements in the frame, it’s also about telling a strong story with less.” Put another way, you’ll learn how to capture attention-grabbing photographs of birds that appear clean and intentional. Kilian illustrate his suggestions with a variety of impressive images that you can use for inspiration.<\/p>\n

Kilian’s basic point is that negative space can be your best friend for this uncommon approach. That’s because it immediately guides a viewer’s eye and accentuates the key subject of a shot by intentionally surrounding it with emptiness that creates a feeling of calm and focus.<\/p>\n

Once the video concludes be sure to visit Kilian’s popular YouTube channel<\/a> where you’ll find many more how-to videos for increasing your bird photography skills.<\/p>\n
