Landscape photography can be a tricky genre, full of subtle aesthetic and technical choices that can really make or break a photo. This excellent video details seven tips that can help you to improve your landscape photos.

Coming to you from Nigel Danson, this helpful video discusses seven tips that can really help you improve your landscape images. Personally, the thing that helped me improve my own work the most was rather simple: slowing down. Landscape photography is a genre where you’re generally allowed the luxury of time, and taking advantage of that can be a big step in the right direction, both when you’re behind the camera and in front of your computer screen. Simply doing things like double-checking my compositions for things I might have missed and taking time to step away from an edit and come back to it with fresh eyes has made the biggest difference in improving my work, particularly in improving my eye when it comes to subtle edits. Check out the video above for Danson’s full thoughts and helpful tips.
