5 Reasons Why Being a Landscape Photographer Is Great

Landscape photography is a tough genre, requiring long slogs to find good shots with no guarantee that nature will cooperate once you get there. Still, there are a lot of great things about it, and this fantastic video discusses five of the best parts about being a landscape photographer. 

Coming to you from Mads Peter Iversen, this fantastic video discusses five of the best aspects of being a landscape photographer. The one thing I have always loved most about landscape photography is the time outdoors. I spend a lot of time stuck indoors for work, and so, any chance to get outside is already something I jump at, and to do so with a camera in my hand is doubly great. It provides a chance to get some exercise, and it is also fantastic for my mental health. I always find it quite meditative, and it lets me break free from obligations, stress, or anything that is on my mind and to enjoy a simple pleasure in peaceful surroundings with the added bonus of getting to explore my creativity. Check out the video above for the full rundown from Iversen.
