Generating Ideas - Landscape

Landscape photography show spaces in the world that can be nature or man-made environments, usually both. Photography that involves man-made objects such as buildings or bridges is called Urban Photography. The difference between natural and urban landscape is that natural focuses more on the beauty of nature; this usually includes plants, mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, etc.
The things that need to be taken into consideration when doing landscape photography is mainly the weather when you are shooting outside, but the other considerations are composition, lighting, time of day, locations, the equipment you will need and how much it could cost for you to reach the location you want to shoot.
For landscape photography, the time of day is crucial because of the the position of the sun, length of shadows, the warmth of the light, etc.


Larry Chait
I think Chait's work is interesting because the camera focuses on one object, for example a house, and the rest of the image is blurred as though he (or the land) is moving. I would love to recreate Chait's work because I think it makes landscape photography look really interesting.








Panorama
I attempted to make a panorama in the amphitheater. I did this by taking an image and then moving the camera slightly (either horizontally or vertically) and taking a new image and repeating the process. Some of the images seem slightly over-exposed because the leaves on the trees look more white than green, I also think I could have composed the image better instead of losing most of the amphitheater.
