A couple of tips on how to make images of beautiful landscapes

If you're a photographer or want to become one, landscape can be a great genre to develop your skills and experiment creatively. First, technically it is a fairly straightforward genre. Second, they are stunning in and of themselves. They don't need complex plots or "heavy" content to be great. Following our tips will make creating gorgeous landscape images even easier!

Maximize depth of field

Of course, there may be times when you want to get a little creative and experiment. However, the standard approach used for pretty landscape pictures is to focus as much of your scene as possible. The easiest way to do this is to close the aperture as much as possible. The smaller the aperture value, the greater the depth of field of the shots.

Use a tripod

Because of the slower shutter speeds, you'll have to choose to compensate for the small aperture, you'll need to find a way to keep the camera still during the exposure, such as mounting the camera on a tripod.

Look for a focal point

All shots need some focus. You will not get beautiful landscape pictures without determining the focus point. Focal points in landscapes can take many forms: 

  • building or structure;
  • a remarkable tree in the field;
  • a majestic boulder;
  • a monolith mountain, and so on.

Work out the foreground

One element that can make your landscape shots really stand out is the carefully crafted foreground. It kind of gives the viewer a way into the image and creates a sense of the depth of space. The most beautiful landscape photos usually have a detailed foreground.

Change the shooting point

Don't limit yourself to one angle to give yourself a better chance of getting beautiful landscape photos. You can even lie down on the ground to shoot from a low point or find a higher vantage point. Not everything is photographed at eye level. Explore the environment, try new things, and find something unique.

Don't be afraid of the clouds

Many beginner photographers see a sunny day and think this is the best time to go out with a camera and take pictures of beautiful landscapes. But an overcast day that threatens to rain can provide a much better opportunity to create an image with a natural mood and ominous overtones. Look for storms, wind, fog, dramatic clouds, sun shining through dark skies, rainbows, sunsets, and sunrises. And work with these weather changes, not just wait for the next sunny day with plain blue skies.

Monetize your photos

The easiest way is landscape stock photos. Yes, there are many sites where you can download free beautiful landscapes, but the best works bring income for sure. Pictures of the fascinating place of exotic islands of the Atlantic Ocean are top-rated. And if you don't want to travel too far, you can look for places of interest nearby, such as the National Park.
