Photography Was Hard Until I Learned This!

One of the most difficult aspects of photography is improving ones compositional skills. There's a ton of opinions out there on the topic, but what I'll share with you in this video is what simplified it all for me. I always struggled with "paralysis by analysis" where I would try and apply too many compositional "rules" at the same time. The technique I'll cover here, simplified the entire process and improved my photography at the same time!


#1 App Every Landscape Photographer Should Own!

I've used many apps for photography over the past ten years, but this one is by far the most accurate for what matters most to me. Now this isn't an app to help you determine your camera settings, but it will tell you the answer to what's most important when it comes to landscape photography conditions.


🔓 VAULT FAVORITES

Beginner Wide Angle Mistake to Avoid

I think a wide angle lens is by far the most popular choice of lens to start with for landscape photography, but there are some drawbacks and mistakes to avoid when using these ultra wide focal lengths. The field of view when using a wide angle lens is such a stark departure from what we see on a daily basis with our eyes that it can make the effective use of such a wide focal length challenging in certain situations.

What Your Lens Choice Says About Your Personality

As a landscape photographer, the lens you choose is more than just a tool—it's a reflection of how you see the world. But what if I told you that your go-to lens might also reveal something deeper about your personality? That’s the intriguing concept we’ll explore today, inspired by a question that has fascinated many photographers: If you could only use one lens for the rest of your life, what would it be?

The Lens You Choose: A Window Into Your Photographic Mind

Most photographers have a range of lenses they use for different situations. You might reach for a wide-angle lens to capture the grandeur of a sweeping landscape or a telephoto lens to isolate a distant subject. But if you had to choose just one, which would it be? For me, it's likely my 100-400mm telephoto lens. This choice suits the type of photography I love the most—capturing intimate, detailed scenes from a distance.

But this question isn’t just about gear preferences. It’s also about how you approach your work and, possibly, how you approach life. To delve into this further, we need to explore another question: Are you an extrovert or an introvert?

Are You an Extrovert or Introvert? Your Lens Choice Might Hold the Answer

Whether you consider yourself an extrovert or an introvert can be influenced by many factors. Do you enjoy collaborating in a group, or do you prefer working alone? Is your ideal weekend packed with social events, or do you cherish time spent in solitude? These traits could also correlate with your photography style and, interestingly, your preferred lens. >> Read More

  • 🎨 Black & White photos help you see the story in the image by not distracting your eyes with colors.
  • 🎈 The first aerial photo ever captured was created by french photographer, Gaspar Felix Tournachon, in 1858 who was a balloonist.
  • 🤔 Apparently the left side of your face is the more photogenic side.
