Four Composition Techniques to Try for Better Landscape Photos

If you’re interested in photographing landscapes, you should know there are multiple ways to make your images more interesting – some that only require a bit of imagination. In this 26-minute video, Canadian film photographer Kyle McDougall covers four techniques he uses to make his landscape images better.

The first in a two-part series, McDougall looks at images from his collection and explains what he likes about them and how he constructed the images using a particular technique. Below are the four techniques he suggests to improve your landscape photos.

Organization and Detail: McDougall says composing a scene is “like taming the chaos of the real world.” He says that it’s about taking all the elements in a scene, deciding what you want, and organizing them into a flow. So while you obviously cannot move objects in a landscape, you have to move yourself and your perspective. Make sure objects are not cutting each other off or overlapping, for example.
