Landscape photography is capturing images outdoors either nature or urban places that have an emotional connection with them or even a wow factor to them. For example, if someone was to go to some cliff sides on a windy day, they would be amazed by the scenery thats happening with waves crashing on cliff sides and you could take a picture of it because of how intriguing that scenery was. Landscape pictures are taken because the people who where amazed by the scenery want other people to see the scenery and want them to imagine what it would be like to see that picture for themselves in real life and see the reaction that a person could have to the picture giving it emotional value.

Moreover, there are different types of landscape pictures that could be taken, which are rural, costal, urban, industrial and altered landscapes.
