Landscape Preview





Tip 1- If a river or stream flows through the landscape you are shooting, think about the character of it and how to convey that character in the image.

Tip 2- photographing forests presents a different set of challenges. First, think about the character of the forest you want to shoot and the feeling you want to convey in your image. Should it feel dark and brooding, or light and airy

Tip 3- Whether you are shooting toward a forest or shooting from inside it, look for patterns, lines, and other compositional elements you can use. Try both wide and telephoto lenses. A wide lens looking up at the trees will make them soar; a telephoto will compress a row of trunks
