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.


Snowscape in both color and black & white



Always attracted to the sensuous shapes formed by snow on the landscape, I was lucky today in that I could incorporate them into a photo of scenery, instead of shooting them alone.  To emphasize the curves, I stayed at a short distance and zoomed in more than I usually do for landscape photographs. 

Like many winter scenes, this I rendered this one in both color and black and white.  I'm unsure which I like better, so I included both of them here.
