5 Tips for Better Landscape and Nature Photography

You could spend a lifetime out in nature with your camera and still barely scratch the surface of what is out there to photograph. If you would like to improve your landscape and nature photography, check out this fantastic video tutorial that features five helpful tips that will improve your work and expand your creative palette. 

Coming to you from Chris Burkard with B&H Photo and Video, this awesome video tutorial will show you five tips for improving your landscape and nature photography. Of the tips, one that I think is especially crucial is the importance of paying close attention to the seasons. Beyond understanding their impact on natural features and thus, on your images, it is also important to remember that the same location can yield vastly different images depending on the time of year, and you may want to consider returning throughout the seasons and try using different focal lengths, varied compositions, and more. You can often get more than you might think out of one location. Check out the video above for the full rundown from Burkard.
