Dodges and tricks
- In order not to annoy a totally wayward white balance, it is advisable, in the so-called raw mode to shoot. (However, this is always advisable, not only in landscape photography!)
- Higher ISO numbers, that high-speed film or a corresponding adjustment to the digital camera is expected to coarseness and noisy images.
- The use of a tripod is a must. It protects against vibration at slow shutter speeds, thus ensuring consistently sharp images. Is the home well protected just as you would like to go take a picture, the camera can be placed anywhere or ajar. Bridge railing, flat rocks, anything can be found determined.
- With wide-angle close-ups may emphasize regular patterns in trees.
- A long focal length (telephoto) can accentuate foregrounds by the background is compressed.
- If you turn the camera slightly to the side, can image details excluded or new details are included.
- Individual trees or tree structuring can Grupen through the image. The same applies to tractor tracks, rivers or roads.
- Look for in a sequence of images at varying foreground detail. Always the same thing at the same place does get boring. You can also try to change the foreground or in the field in perspective, if the range of possible details that could be used instead, is limited. Again, be courageous! Try it!
- Hood use, especially on sunny days, turn off the scattered and reflected light. Otherwise, it can reduce the contrast and thus come to a sluggish haze effect.
- When shooting from a moving vehicle is part of the country should be included stem, which lies far away as possible and therefore not easily pass by. Be sure to trees, other vehicles (especially trucks and buses), utility poles, etc. that respect then cover the subject in whole or in part. Further objects, then pass the course more quickly, should be photographed with a fast shutter speed 1/2000 sec; for the ISO speed may appropriately fit.
