One of the best ways to know how to take good photos is to know what makes for a terrible photo. This hilarious video will show you how to take terrible landscape photos so you know what makes for a good landscape photo.
Coming to you from Craig Roberts of e6 vlogs, this fun video talks about how to take a terrible landscape photo. If you've not seen Roberts' videos before, he has a wonderfully quirky style that's very engaging. Of his tips, the one I most often see violated (and am still guilty of myself quite a bit) is not paying attention to having a compelling foreground. It's easy to come upon a beautiful landscape scene, throw on a wide angle to capture all of it, and come away with an underwhelming picture, particularly since the wide angle lens tends to push the background away. Having a foreground element brings back some interest to what's otherwise a very flat scene and helps to draw the viewer's eye through the image. Even though a photograph is two-dimensional, try to think of how you can show the element of depth in your images. Check out the video above for more helpful tips.
It started funny but because he obviously knows his craft turned it into more what should be done. So worthwhile. I am british too and its kinda giving me the idea of doing my own version of this video. I love this dry humor. Following him
Why are his back grounds breathing like that? I can deal with the auto-exposure adjusting every once in a while, but that breathing thing is really annoying. Otherwise, this guy is alright. His humor isn't too overbearing, he's not a screamer, and he gives some good tips.
Great video, very entertaining. Thank You!
