  1. You can either print out the picture you choose or study them from a large image on your computer screen. 

  2. Look through the selection of photos considering if you prefer to depict a landscape or portrait image. 

  3. Since this is a landscape you can work your light tones into your picture early if you wish. This will help you to establish perspective with atmospheric lights which in turn helps establish depth of field with the lightest whites on the horizon.

  4. Make as many different types of marks in your depiction as required.

  6. Capture the nature of dappled light in your depiction by sharply varying your contrast.
