Influential Photographers - Gregory Basco

Gregory Basco is a well known nature photographer living in Costa Rica. Costa Rica is a paradise for nature photographers.

Visit Greg's website for good documentation on his work, his services, initiatives, and his philosophy.

One philosophy Greg promotes actively is the concept of RAW perfection.

This is the goal of taking a shot entirely in camera.

"To me, a fully successful nature image is one that requires no cropping whatsoever (that is, it was captured full-frame in-camera), does not have any cloning applied (either taking things away or especially adding things, including added canvas), and has only a minimum of post-processing adjustments applied (I consider this to mean normal adjustments in saturation, tones, exposure, recovery, noise reduction and of course sharpening)."
