In this video, I share some of my insights into the use of a wide-angle lens for landscape photography. Including a strong foreground is an excellent way to add depth and drama to a landscape photograph but sometimes too much of a good thing can be a detriment to the final image especially if the foreground does not relate or add anything to the scene.

Wow. Some of these close-ups are outstanding, but the one at 19:20 is my definite favourite. It reminds me of an ancient map with rivers and hills and I can’t help but interpret a lot of life and story into it. I don’t see stones anymore, I see a whole world hidden. Really inspirational and moving content. 👍🏼

Your cliff face geology photos of shale or siltstone remind me of my thesis area in Nova Scotia. I took tons of photos as examples of the strata for documentation for scientific paper writing. But it makes sense given that Box Scotia and the UK used to be joined together during the last supercontinent before opening up of the Atlantic

I am always cognizant of your efforts to insure they are no or minimum overlaps in the elements in the frame... wonderful attention to detail 🙂 the grass makes a possible counter point/contrast to the rock... organic vs inorganic... I prefer the 2nd one... perhaps because of the rock in front of the big slab was too close 🤔 the 2nd one feels a little better balanced to my eye and the rocks appear to be cradled like a nest with the cliff face 🙂 and I always love the intimate landscapes/linescapes.... the wide angle perspective really shines at 15:15 mark 🥰 WOW... I could spend ALL day at the 17:00 location, such incredible details, lines, textures and colour🤩 Thank You!

No real favorite as each offers a different points of view. I believe the greater value is in the wonderful collection as a whole which would make an outstanding presentation in print. I also did like the quick image of you lying on the rocks (20:46) which, if formalized, would have told a unique and impactful story, sure caught my eye. All together, one of my favorite videos in a long time.

This is a very helpful video on composition, very well done Adam. I appreciate in ALL of your videos how you work hard to find compositions. I have learnt this from you and I will spend 2 hours or more bending, laying and standing tall trying to look for the best composition of a particular photo. You have made me a better photographer and I sincerely thank you for that. I'm always referring to my wife when we go for a walk, when she cannot find a composition, that "Adam Gibbs would find a shot that would probably blow your mind", lol.
@ronboe6325
@ronboe6325 Год назад
For the most part I prefer the close ups of the rock veins; but there is a bias at work, being influenced by geology friends (and classes) so I'm keen on what story the rocks might be telling me. But also by your work and others with old wood grain - very similar look. Interesting how ones own backstory influences how we compose a shot.

Well you outdid yourself. I thought the colors from the Rockies video with the water were crazy good. But the colors in the rocks is phenomenal. About the 16 minute mark. Pls educate me, what’s your take on how an image would have looked if you lowered the camera down another 2 feet. Don’t get me wrong, just trying to get an education. Likely some of your greatest work.

The tip about moving back and zooming in with the wide angle lens is something I have never thought of trying. I was on a trip to Lake Superior a month ago, had some trouble finding a composition I really liked; plenty of interesting things but almost too busy and I never even considered zooming in/moving back a little ways....It might have made a difference. Lesson learned on this one. Great shots too!

It makes me want to bring all of my gear plus tripod, but then I have to carry it all on my back for a month 😬
@JohnDrummondPhoto
@JohnDrummondPhoto Год назад
Looks like your experience is similar to mine. When I shoot very wide angle, it's almost always in portrait orientation. I may crop down to square; but distortions are just too much in landscape orientation and I can get closer to the foreground when the camera is vertical. Re the image at 10:00: any thought of cloning out that rock poking out of l the lower left corner? That, or including the whole rock? Thanks.

Beautiful photography and excellent video. Now I want to experiment with my wide angle lens some more! But I'm curious: I know you know how to clone out things, so what prevents you from cloning out a tuft of grass that you don't feel fits right in the composition? (first image). Is it a personal commitment to be true to the scene or is it an understood rule among professional landscape photographers not to alter the permanent elements of natural settings, even in post processing?
@QuietLightPhoto
@QuietLightPhoto Год назад
Well cloning it out would be an option. I don't mind cloning stuff out but this what a pretty big tuft o I decided to work around it.

Loved this video - at first I thought - "why not just use a longer focal length and stand back a bit further?", but I can see that the use of wide angle really adds to the abstract nature and interest that you can achieve with these rock structures.
