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.


Snow-covered mountains in a Colorado winter landscape


The title of this post is a mouthful, but it's a response to the search terms people use when looking for certain photos.  My flickr statistics page links to the search terms people use to find my photos via Google, Bing, Yahoo, and several other search sites.  It can be interesting to see what they are and how I'm found on the 'net.  I combined a few of the more popular (in winter, anyway) ones into the title above.

Chair Mountain was bathed in sun while we were still shaded by clouds when I took the above photograph yesterday.  We were snowshoeing to the west of the mountain, in the North Fork valley, several miles below McClure Pass.
