  1. Simple Landscape Photography Tips....
If you’re interested in improving your landscape photography this year but not sure where to begin, here are 4 things we suggest you keep in mind next time you head outdoors to snap some new shots:
  1. Try Using RAW- By doing this, you’re more likely to capture the compelling contrast of colors in shots like sunsets. Plus, you can adjust your white balance more freely in this mode without getting grainy images or losing original quality. If you aren’t familiar with the RAW format, just make sure your camera is set to RAW+JPEG before you get started.
  2. Practice Post-Processing- Even if you’re only making very minor adjustments, it’s important for you to get comfortable using some post-production editing programs. If you’re unsure of which system is the best suit for you, check out our mentors’ comparison of Lightroom vs. Photoshop for some guidance!
  3. Use a Tripod- It’s hard to capture the perfect shot if you can’t keep a steady hand.

The lower f/stops give more exposure because they represent the larger apertures, while the higher f/stops give less exposure because they represent smaller apertures. This may seem a little contradictory at first but will become clearer as you take pictures at varying f/stops. Be sure to check your manual first to learn how to set your camera for Aperture Priority, then try experimenting to get comfortable with changing the aperture and recognizing the effects different apertures will have on the end-result image.. What does aperture affect..?? Depth of field is the first of two characteristics that aperture controls, affected by the size of your aperture, the lens you choose, the distance from your subject and the size of your image sensor. The larger your apert...
