REPLAY Blind Photo Critiques with Scott Kelby, Erik Kuna & Richard Bernabe | The Grid 705

It’s a special wildlife and landscape edition of Blind Photo Critiques on The Grid, with Scott Kelby and Erik Kuna joined by wildlife and landscape photographer Richard Bernabe. From bald eagles and wolves to waterfalls, autumn scenes, and dramatic landscapes, the trio digs into what makes an image work—and what gets in the way. Along the way, they tackle everything from light, composition, cropping, and background distractions to wildlife behavior, white balance, shutter speed, and post-processing. Richard also shares some great advice on patience, knowing when to wait for better conditions, and why even creative edits still need to feel grounded in reality.
