Being a landscape photographer means some incredible experiences and the chance to capture remarkable natural beauty, but it is not a walk in the park. If you are interested in the genre and curious about the sort of time and effort you will need to invest and the hardships you will have to endure, check out this fantastic video that will show you what really goes into being a landscape photographer.
Coming to you from Andrew Marr, this great video discusses what it really takes to be a landscape photographer. One that I think sometimes gets overlooked is how much you will have to put up with crazy hours and terrible conditions. This often means getting up well before dawn and being willing to endure rain, snow, cold, and everything in between. In fact, often, some of the most interesting images can be found during or after a storm or in the snow. Be sure you are willing to get up early and bundle up before you invest too much in the genre! Check out the video above for the full rundown from Marr.
