Landscape photography is the art of capturing pictures of nature and the outdoors in a way that brings your viewer into the scene. From grand landscapes to intimate details, the best photos demonstrate the photographerâs own connection to nature and capture the essence of the world around them. Below, youâll find all the landscape photography articles we have written over the past decade, including our highly approachable tutorials and techniques. If you want to learn everything there is to know about taking beautiful landscape pictures, this is the place to start.
Abstract photography, also known as conceptual, concrete, or experimental photography, is
a genre that is difficult to define. Abstract photographs often use
color, light, shadow, texture, shape, or form to imbue a feeling,
sensation, or impression â without actually providing a
representational image of the object or scene thatâs being
photographed.
Shots that typically fit into this genre of
photography are not immediately associated with a familiar object in
the viewerâs eye because they are created by isolating a particular
object or natural scene in a way that removes contextual details from
the image, either through framing the shot in a creative way or
through image editing afterward.
Adventure photography is much more self-explanatory than abstract photography. This type of photography captures images of adventures, usually in the great outdoors. It often features remarkable landscape shots, adventurous travelers, and challenging shooting conditions because of accessibility to particular locations and shifting weather conditions while taking photographs outside.
Another hard-to-define genre, creative photography includes a vast variety of concepts and techniques. It encourages experimentation and creativity in composition, as well as in the equipment and techniques used to capture an image (composite photography can overlap with this genre).
