For me as a landscape photographer, scouting plays a very important role in my photography – even more important than research and planning, which also happen before a photo shoot.
I just recorded a tutorial video, in which I talk about the importance of scouting and show examples where scouting helped me to create special photos.
Because usually it’s not enough to just show up at a location for sunset to get a good photo. What often happens then is that I am in a rush to find a composition while the sun already begins to dip behind the horizon. Sometimes I might come away with a good photo. But chances are that this will not be the best result possible at a location.
Hence I always plan in enough time to explore and scout and with this video I want to motivate you to do so too.
I hope you liked the video. If so, feel free to leave a comment and also make sure to check out my Youtube channel for more videos. The link is below with my other social media links.
And don’t forget to follow me here on Steemit for more videos and articles about photography and travelling.
Well done! Your images are all top notch, going to follow!
