Clyde Butcher's black and white photographs explore his personal bond with the environment. The exquisite beauty and depth of his work draw the viewer into a relationship with nature. His images are captured with an 8x10", 11x14" and 12x20" view camera. The images range in sizes from 8x10 inches to 5x8 feet.
The beauty and importance of Clyde's photography has generated widespread recognition resulting in many museum exhibits. He has been given many honors, among them the Artist Hall of Fame Award, the highest award that can be given to a private citizen by the state of Florida, the Ansel Adams Conservation Award and Distinguished Artist Award from the Florida House in Washington DC. Clyde has also completed six Public Broadcasting programs on the environment of Florida, with three of them being award-winning documentaries. Much of his work can be seen in his numerous books. More information can be found at ClydeButcher.com.

Clyde Butcher | Photoshop Made Simple ["disc" 2 of 2]
This is not an Adobe Photoshop workflow workshop, nor is this workshop highly technical. I have an analog mind in a digital world, so this DVD is a "down-home" explanation of how I use Photoshop on both color and black & white images. My techniques work with either scanned film or digital capture. This video was made before I shot digitally, therefore there is no mention of editing via RAW files.
Creating a photograph, whether in the darkroom or in Photoshop, requires an understanding of the tools needed to produce an image that reflects your personal vision. It is my hope that this video will inspire you to reach a new height in expressing your own vision through photography.
The creative process is a series of decisions on how to use the tools. In this video, I will explain the tools I use and how they work. You will also see some of the creative decisions I make.

I’ve never seen such an entertaining stumble through the awkward misuse of photoshop tools, techniques and nomenclature. I watched both parts with pure delight.
I was born and raised in Everglades City. It was the best place on earth until the government put restrictions on those who know the land best.
What an amazing piece of equipment your 10 x 8 enlarger is. I would really like to have a go at using it. Personally I only enlarge 5x4.Thanks for a great video.
Thank you.
Thanks Clyde for making this simple to understand.❤
No problem. Thanks
Thank you for sharing these two videos. I have found them to be so informative and inspiring. Like Clyde says in the video I too have found there is so much experimentation in evolved in processing black and white photographs. Two brilliant videos have given me another approach to processing my images.
Thank you.
for an ultimate experience get eaten by alligator.
We have never had an issue, plus we don't feed our alligators. We invite you to come and experience a swamp walk. Taking the guided swamp walk tour is like stepping into one of Clyde Butcher's photo's of natural Florida. You will experience shots that Clyde took. Give it a try! Hope to see you soon.
That thing is pretty scary walking up to me like that
I used to talk to Clyde when he presented his work at art shows years ago. I've known about his work for a long time because I've been a photographer for over 50. Clyde is an inspiration!!!
Thank you Mr. Levine.
Loved your work when it was on exhibit at the Orlando Museum of Art. Was spellbinding. Thanks so much for your work.
Thank you.
BW seems to capture our memories better. I love color, but my BW images are better! Butcher a great photographer! Oh! I dislike Dali!
Some people do feel that way about Dali. He was a different sort.
I just received mine,it’s a gift for a friend who loves to photograph nature. I think she’ll love it.
We have been receiving rave reviews!! She will love it. Thank you for your support.
video quality 480, 😭😭😭 and where can I buy/download the disk in higher quality 1080 or 4k❤️
Email paul@clydebutcher.com. He can assist. Thank you.
Seeing the colour, not the image … exactly! Brilliant stuff … thanks! 📷⛵️🕰️🙂
I am really enjoying your views and suggestions for digitally controlling my final images. It’s helping me so much, because I have enjoyed your large format images for many years. I feel your film expertise, makes your Photoshop tutorials more meaningful.
Clyde I always think of you as the 8x10 guy with the giant enlargers and huge prints. Didn’t know you had a digital work mode side. Thanks for the info.
Both technologies have their benefits. Initially, the reasoning was to be able to present the images in books. Now that Clyde is shooting primarily digital editing is done a little differently, beginning with a RAW file. Don't worry though, the giant enlargers are still in Clyde's 2,500 sq ft darkroom at his Venice Gallery and Studio... These are still used to this day to print his mural-sized silver prints from traditional large format negatives.
Unique
Thank you.
its sad with all the people moving to florida they will leave no water for the everglades
very sad
King K. Rool on the move, living his best life
Exactly right!
Do you use hypo clear to remove hypo?
Oh boy wish I could print with him, man that would be a bucket list thing for sure as I like printing BIG!
Magnificent camera,there is nothing like it in the world, when you try an 8X10 you will have arrived at the K2 of photography!
In enlarging a 4x5 to 11x14, I put the film in the carrier and compose full size, then take the negative out of the carrier and make a 60 second 4x5 contact print in the enlarger light with the Kodak Projection Print Scale. Inspection of the sectors allows me to get close to final exposure. Then I make a contract print at the indicated exposure to verify it, may adjust accordingly. Don't need to waste a lot of paper with trial prints. The negative goes back in the enlarger and the full size print is made. The 4x5 paper is cut from the box of 11x14 paper, has to be exactly the same paper.
Dream vacation ... are there more details about this?
Hello there. Thanks for watching and asking for more information. Here is our web site explorebigcypress.com/ If you have any questions, please give us a call. 239-695-2428 We look forward to hearing from you.
@@clydebutcher thank you!
Thank you Mr. Clyde !
You bet!
A true legend right there. Amazing stories.
Thank you.
Wow ! What a life lived !
When I was kid I worked at a place in the mid 70s called General Graphics in San Francisco. Eddy Dyba was the master printer and did all the mural work. Printed with an 8x10 Durst he usually projected onto a large wall. Printed Dorothea Lange's, Bill Owens', and others' negs. Kirk Anspach was the second leading printer, and he did all of Jim Marshall's negs. Kirk used a 5x7 Durst. Heady times for a kid like myself who retouched all the prints. Nice to see the craft still pursued. After I left GG, I ended up as an assistant in a food photog's studio who primarily used 8x10 Deardorfs. There's nothing like an 8x10 chrome, it seduces you.
Camera, tripod, extra memory cards & batteries, A netted hammock, gps & enough food for a few days, I wouldn't want to come back out. Would a lone hiker have to worry about alligators or pythons in there?
Yes of course. No different then the ocean with sharks. Be careful, but enjoy.
God bless you and your work.I collected water samples throughout Everglades National Park for United States Geological Survey.Drove down every levee in the park.The Everglades is a very special place.I ❤ all of your pictures,You must be familiar with a Mr.Ron Bergeron,of coarse. Both ,you and he care so much of our beloved Everglades.I appreciate both of you,Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,please be careful out there.God bless you and your family. Good luck and God Bless.I fished the Everglades for 23 years.
Fine Art Photography,Large Format forever!!!!!!
I see the time, effort, and precision he's used to get such magnificent results.
Nice photos. I can't believe you are waist deep in that gator party.
There is no better way to capture the perfect photograph! Thank you.
Inspirational !!!

thank for inspiring people about the western everglades
Thank you for your kind words. It has always been my intent to preserve and share the beauty.
I was at Clyde's studio last month and saw the dry side of his darkroom. I'd give anything to apprentice there for a week while prints are being made.
Thanks Archy. Glad you stopped in.
Magnific Large Format Photography,magic,fantastic art work!
Thank you so much 😀
hi, mister Clyde im from the Philippines and a huge fan of yours I was amazed at your photographs, your love of nature especially how to convince your wife to be involved in your hobby and work as you said as your nurse, my wife is a nurse but I can't involve her to my photography any way may I know what is your everyday lens brand focal length.
My wife finds peace in nature. I use Canon tilt shift 17 mm

Visited your place last week.... beautiful photography and your wife’s work is quite nice! I didn’t want to leave. First heard of the Everglades when I read Zora Neal Hurston’s Their Eyes Where Watching God, she loved the Glades and Florida in general.... finally last week I visited....
Awesome, thank you! Appreciate your kind words.
