🎥 4 landscape skills

4 Skills That Will Dramatically Improve Your Landscape Photos [Home]( Today’s quick tip comes to you from our [Action Cards: 65 Photography Project Cheat Sheets]( –– Many photographers begin with landscape photography, and that’s good. Since a landscape doesn’t really move much, it allows them the time to think through the photographic process before clicking the shutter. There are two primary tools—composition and light—to instill ‘visual excitement’ and a sense of ‘story’ into landscape photos. Remember these four tips when creating your landscape images: - Be on the lookout for human made objects. Nothing ruins the serenity of a landscape photo faster than a missed garbage can or an inadvertently parked RV in the background. - Always try and shoot within the two-hour window surrounding sunset or sunrise. If you’re after a ‘warm glow’ within your color scheme, you will find this more frequently at sunset versus dawn. - These composition tools work best with landscape photography: leading lines, layering, focal points, juxtaposition, and the inclusion of an object of known size to establish a sense of scale (for example, a tree in the foreground with a sweeping vista behind it). - Look for reflections in bodies of water, and use motion techniques like long exposure or faster shutter speeds. A beautiful landscape photo is easily marred by missing human made objects located within the scene.
