Landscape Photography Suggestions And Techniques

For as we speak's picture tip, lets talk a bit about panorama photography tips and techniques. This will likely be a assessment of things we have mentioned earlier than, however many of us haven't actually tried utilizing them. Set it as a goal for this weekfinish to get on the market and use these landscape pictures suggestions and techniques to create something you will be proud of!

Light - with a portrait, we've total control. We can adjust the light levels, we will place our light where we wish, we will put modifiers in front of it - like umbrellas, scrims, diffusion materials, gobos and so on... We are able to do pretty much anything we need to get the image our mind has conjured up!

With panorama and cityscape photography, we're pretty much stuck with what nature provides us. There's not much we can do.

Or is there? With some pre-planning, we will virtually assure a stunning shot!

In an out of doors, panorama setting, there isn't much we can do to switch or adjust the light, but we will turn out to be hyper aware of what light does at various times of day - and in numerous weather conditions.

Firstly to be successful as a landscape or cityscape photographer - you have to have a want to lose sleep.

What am I talking about? Glad you asked! If you wish to start capturing those dramatic landscape pictures with all the beautiful colors, there's really only two occasions of day to shoot - at daybreak and at dusk.

However for a photographer, dawn and dusk are a bit more expanded than you may think. About twenty minutes earlier than the sun first peeks over the horizon in the morning there's a "false" dawn. This time of day provides you with those intense cobalt blue colors you see in contest winners, however haven't been able to see in nature!

Because the sun gets closer and closer to the horizon, the colors will start to get pinker. The colours you see at dawn are NOT the same as the colors you see at sunset. (They're more red and orange.)

So, drag your self out of bed a couple hours before dawn so that you'll have sufficient time to grab a cup of coffee (so you're awake sufficient to focus) and make your way to your predetermined spot, get set up and start shooting in the course of the false dawn.

See what I imply about needing a desire to lose sleep? Here's the great thing, most of your pals and camera club competition can be snoring away while you "get the shot!"

By the way, there is a false sunset about 20 minutes after the sun goes down. You aren't spending that time watching TV are you?

In addition to the terrific colours, you also get great light angles!

Think of the last photo you saw of a body builder... Where was the light? I'd venture to guess that it was to the side. Actually about 90 degrees to the camera - model axis.

This glancing side light causes heavy shadowing around the muscle tissues making them look more defined and actually larger. The light causes some specular highlights too - which makes the distinction between highlight and shadow even more striking.

Now think of your landscape or your cityscape as a muscle bound model. The shadows caused by the glancing sunlight will help define and emphasize the shapes.

Next look for an fascinating scene! Use foreground components to draw the eye into the photo. Use the rule of thirds, leading lines, diagonals and different compositional methods to draw the viewer's eye to the "star" of your photo. (Make sure you will have a well defined "star!")

Finally, throw in a number of clouds to reflect the sun's colours and add some visual interest to the sky and you may be well in your way to winning photo contests!

Do all of this at daybreak - then do a shot of the same scene at noon. Finally, do it again at sunset and compare all your results. I think you will quickly start to realize just how vital all of the picture tips, techniques and rules we've been discussing truly are!
