Welcome the Landscape and Nature Photography blog

Landscape and nature photography is popular in scenic areas, because there's so much subject matter everywhere one turns. This blog will help you advance from taking a mere snapshot of beautiful scenery to creating a great photograph that pulls you into that scene as though you were back there again.

From winter landscape photography to macro photography, color to black and white, view my beautiful nature photography and read the digital landscape photography tips I offer to help you improve your photos.

If the topic you're interested in doesn't appear near the top of the blog, use the handy search feature on the right to check previous posts for that subject. Themes like the rule-of-thirds, using lines and curves, finding foreground elements, photographic filters, light angles, tripods, and others are discussed, with examples provided to illustrate the concepts.


Black and white landscape with mountains and river


I really thought my black and white treatment would decrease when the summer colors returned, but the classic look of a landscape (especially those with great clouds) in black and white is keeping me at it.

This photo of the Crystal River beneath Chair Mountain appeals to me both because of the great patterns and textures, as well as all the natural lines that lead the eye into the photo.
