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.


Mountain Landscape with Pond and Clouds in both color and black & white



I usually turn the polarizing filter to cut through the reflection on the water, but a lack of subsurface interests prompted me to turn it the other way and maximize the reflection, capturing both the mountains and the fantastic cumulus clouds.

This pond is next to the airstrip, a mile or so west of Marble, Colorado.
