Avoiding cliches in landscape photography
![]()
I love landscape photography. It is an amazing feeling to capture the majesty and splendor of the world around us in a photograph.
Of course, thousands of other photographers have felt the same way over the years. And plenty of ‘em are better photographers than me!
It is very easy to take the exact same snapshot as everyone else. Especially when it comes to beautiful, scenic locations and landscapes - The very thing that makes them so appealing to you, has almost definitely made them appealing to hundreds/thousands of other photographers over the years. The task of creating a unique photo is daunting - how does one find a distinguishing vision in a scene that has already been done thousands upon thousands of times?
