What is landscape photography?
Landscape photography is the study of the great outdoors, capturing images showing the essence of nature and the world around us. Usually, landscape photography will focus on the natural environment, however many photographers also capture industrial and man-made environments- showing the contrast between the artificial and nature. Great landscape photography really immerses the viewer into the image, allowing them to feel involved in the scene they are observing and transporting them to the location at hand.
Rural landscape photography focuses on capturing images showing the stories and life in nature and the environment around us, usually one not familiar to many people, possibly secluded or desolate. These images will use different perspectives, lighting and locations to capture areas of a landscape in a less obvious way than usual.
