Behind the Prints with Art Wolfe in New Zealand

Back in October while leading a pair of tours in New Zealand, I spent some time with landscape photographer and educator Richard Young discussing landscape photography and finding captivating abstract images in nature.

I think one of the most unique things about about our tours is having the point of view that there are interesting shots all around us – it’s just a matter of identifying the elements of design, and the right way to frame them. We took some time to visit Richard’s studio and print out several images on an Epson P900, and the results were stunning!

Check out the video for some excellent tips from Richard. I contribute a few things myself. I’ll be heading back to New Zealand in late April of 2026, the perfect time to photograph the changing leaves in what is their fall season—reserve your spot now and save a little cash with early bird pricing.

If you were enticed by the prints, several of these images are available for purchase. Father’s day is coming up!
