| Trip Notes - 10 Tips & Tricks for Lanscape Photography | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Patience |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Patience is one of the most underrated and possibly most useful virtues that a landscape photographer can possess. Be it waiting for the right light, the right cloud pattern, the right time of the day or simply for the time to pass as you make yet another 1/2 an hour exposure. Patience keeps the photographer persistent and persistence almost always pays off in lanscape photography. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Think Abstract. Be Reductionist | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| When composing a lanscape image, think OUT of the mould or minset of photographing a lanscape. Use colour and shapes rather than actual subject matter as composition instruments. Puzzle your viewer. Make him or her stop to ponder about what your image is actually depicting. The frequency of the question "Why didn't I see this (the scene photograph) in that way before?" is a good guage that you are approaching things differently and thus contributing in a real sense to the genre of good and diversified landscape photography. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Use Depth of Field Carefully | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Because of how the human eye works, controlling one depth of field in any image (not restricted to lanscapes only) serves as a tool to move attention to specific subjects within the frame while eliminating non- essential or distracting elements into blur. Generous depth of filed usually implies that the image has lots of detail that needs to be appreciated in full and shallow depth of field is used by photographer to decide for his or her viewer what to look at. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
