          Landscape Photography on Full Manual Mode

          Hi folks, thought I would do a bit of a more in depth tutorial on my basic setup for landscape photography.  This isn’t really aimed at experienced pros but more enthusiasts interested to know how I get my shots.  All photographers have varying methods and this is by no means the only way to achieve good landscape photographs.  I am a canon shooter and although I don’t plan on getting overly technical please be aware that other camera brands may have different knobs and dials!

          Landscape Photography Tips

          1. Location research.
          Make sure you know where you are planning to shoot. Check maps for roads and/or footpaths. Also have an idea of where the sun will be (compasses are good for this). Some locations might be great for sunrises but poor for sunsets, and vice versa.
