My photographic work is extremely time-consuming to plan. Precise research and preparation is therefore an essential part of my process. The Shadowmap solution helps me like no other software to precisely determine the lighting situation at locations all over the world and at any time of year. Even after years of using it, I am still impressed by its accuracy and intuitive controls.
