Tutorial - How to take scenic photos of miniatures

[Peithetairos]

Hi all,

I just wrote a short tutorial on my experiences with taking scenic photos of my miniatures. I look at camera choices, lighting, framing, scene composition and photo editing. In a second installment I will move from the general to the specific and provide a step-by-step tutorial for one specific shot.

Here is the link.
