1. In the late afternoon and early mornings are the best times for landscape shooting.
Lightning is more dramatic, softer and fuller and shadows reveals interesting
textures that are vital for an interesting photo.
2. Be prepared to go for a walk with a GPS unit or a map to seek out the most
interesting locations in the specific area that you are in. The scenes next to the
road are not the most beautiful and there are normally direction boards in the
vicinity.
3. Try to eliminate unsightly or unnatural elements such as poles, garbage cans and
overhead wires. Try to be in a position when you take the photo so that you have a
beautiful clean picture in front of you. If not, move to a space where you can get
the best shot – even if you have to lie down.
4. Use filters. A polarizing filter will darken the sky and saturate the colours in the
landscape. This is the one must-have filter.
5. To give your image visual structure you can use basic compositional guidelines.
A foreground object will help to frame the scene.
6. With your digital camera rather shoot RAW images than JPGs, which give you
greater latitude later for image manipulation.
7. Using a slow shutter speed to create blur when capturing movement can add great
interest to a landscape. A nice example is running water.
8. Always use a tripod to ensure sharpness, especially in evening low-light
conditions.
9. Telling a story with your camera forces you to think about what you are doing.
People enjoy stories to look at.
10. Develop your own style and uniqueness. Truly great photographers produce
unique images.
