Essential strategies to capture great mountain photographs! 1) Create harmony in the scene from foreground to background to make the image more tridimensional: @marcograssiphotography: “To achieve this goal, start by working globally on colors and contrast in LR, specifically on the camera calibration menu, the panel, the HSL/color menu, and the color grading menu.” 2) Provide scale, show geometry, and use the different mountain layers: @nicolas.boulandet.photo: “Capture the landscape’s excellent geometry and the perfect stacking of the mountain layers.” @stephanthm: “Show the mountain peaks from a different point of view or add people in the foreground to show the proportions.” 3) Control the light and shadows to enhance the mood: @kelvin_yuen_: “Adjust the darkness to guide the eye of the viewer. For the mood, use cold tonality. The overall outcome will display mysterious and unbelievable sceneries.” 4) Stay close to your spot of choice: @jonashausmann_: “Travel alone or sleep in your car close to nature. You will enter a state of mindfulness and connect with nature. @stephanthm: “Book accommodation near the summit and spend a lovely evening in the mountains. At 3 am, when the alarm clock rings, hike the last few meters to reach the summit.” 5) Move around, and look at each element surrounding you: @sebastian.lehrke: “Photographing in the direction of the light down into the valley, we completely forgot to turn around. I walked in front to place myself as a scaling point for the others at the end of a slope and saw this other view. Instantly I grabbed my camera and pointed wildly to the sky. All were stunned.” 6) Try different settings and focal lengths to adjust to the brightness: @ilynx_: “Improve your flexibility and speed, decide quickly and select the right lens and the appropriate settings. After two minutes, the weather may change the landscape, so you do not want to regret not having chosen a different lens, filter, or shot!” 🎇 @nomadict: And you, what strategies do you follow?
