Every genre of photography comes with its own common problems, and landscape photography is no different. This great video examines three of the most common problems landscape photographers face and how you can overcome them.

Coming to you from First Man Photography, this excellent video talks about some of the most common problems faced by landscape photographers and what you can do to get past them. Of the issues, I think finding original compositions is probably the one we all face most commonly. I personally think that while the grand destinations we all dream about going to and photographing are wonderful, it’s easy to overlook just how much we can get out of spending time exploring our own locales. While where you live might not be as exciting as some of the popular landscape destinations, if you spend a lot of time truly exploring an environment, you might find it holds a lot more possibilities than you initially thought it did. That’s often where you’ll be able to find some truly original shots. Check out the video above for more helpful tips on common issues we face.
