Tips for taking Landscape photos: All the hints and advice you need to take really great shots of any subject. With so many techniques to experiment with in photography, it can sometimes be difficult to know where to apply each of the different settings or methods. Over the next five pages we will break things down for you, giving you the most important tips for the most popular areas of photography. A lot of these skills can be applied in various places, but use this guide to filter out the need-to-know information for landscapes, portraits, macro and more. It’s really easy to know what to use if you have a little bit of help to get you started...
Landscapes
Advice for fantastic Vistas.
Capturing the beauty of a scene in front of you can be very fulfilling, but so many common mistakes are made in this area that sometimes what the eye
sees doesn’t really translate into a stunning photograph. Thinking about your composition and some techniques to enhance your images will soon have you on the way to framing amazing landscapes.
Create interest.
Fill your frame and make sure there aren’t any big, empty spaces in your photo with no point of interest. Big rolling fields are good if they are leading to a focal point like some trees, but on their own they aren’t very interesting..
Wide-angle lenses.
Use a wide-angle lens to fit in as much of the scenery as possible between 15mm and 25mm is a good length. If you have a fixed lens then zoom out as far as you can. To fit in even more, you could try a panorama using built-in modes on your camera. You can also take a few shots then stitch them together in editing software, but this takes a bit of practice.
The golden hour.
The time of day that you take your photo can drastically affect the overall result. When the sun bright during the midday hours the lighting can be harsh, but if you wait for softer light, the colours and tones of your image can be greatly improved. Just before and after sunrise and sunset is the optimum time, and is often called the ‘golden hour’.
Use a filter.
The use of filters can dramatically improve shots or add in some great creative effects; an ND graduated filter will help even out skies and land, while polarising filters can increase the contrast in your shots. You can also use in-camera filters too, such as Vivid to help boost colours and tones, or monochrome to shoot in black and white.
Take long exposures.
Long exposures create a soft, milky effect which looks especially good on coastal scenes. Put your camera on a tripod and set a shutter speed of lsec or slower. You’re likely to need an ND filter which will let in less light and prevent your shots from overexposing, so this type of shot works best on a DSLR or compact with an ND filter built in.
Use a tripod to take long exposures free from blur.
