Landscape photography is the capturing of land of area to reflect an aestheticly pleasing view.
Defined: all the visible features of an area of land, often considered on terms of their aesthetic appeal.
Combining the physical origins (land) and the cultural overlay of human presence. Landscapes reflect the living synthesis of people and places.
Often used to communicate a part of someone's identity.
"A good landscape picture should make a connection with the viewer, and tell you a story. A good landscape picture will have you finding interesting details in the photo for several months after you first see it." - Andrew Carter
Show someone more than they see. The idea that people often assume that the beauty of things is only what people choose to see, rather than everything in its form as it lives and dies.
Capturing of nature through all its cycles.
Many great landscape photos have been talked in places that would not usually be considered beautiful - by choosing what to include or exclude, and bringing your own unique perspective, you can choose the scene that best represents your creative views.
Share the feelings of a moment.
Capturing the photo of the moment.
Capturing a moment of time that not everyone get to see.
Remind people of the beauty of our world.
