I've positioned the subject (myself, actually) in the right third of the frame here, with the lake in the left third. When you're at the top of the hill taking your shot, spend a couple of minutes having a look around for something you can place in your shot to help bring the scene together. Tree stumps, moss-covered rocks, even some pretty wildflowers can all be used to draw the viewer's eye into a scene. Look for foreground interest in your scenes. In fact, to get the best out of your wide shots you need to think about composition even more. It's easy to think that just using as wide an angle as possible is a guarantee of a cool landscape photo, but that's not the case. Look for interesting rock formations, patterns in the landscapes or unusual shapes in the scene - all of which can stand out when you zoom in or crop out other distracting elements. Mountaintops that would otherwise be out of frame are suddenly captured in all their majesty, while beautiful rivers can now be seen in their entirety, snaking their way into a scene.īut once you've had the excitement of seeing the scene in full, try using the telephoto zoom lenses on your phone to focus on some of the details within it. Superwide landscapes can be particularly dramatic, as they capture so much of a scene in a single image. By switching to the iPhone 12 Pro Max's ultrawide lens I was able to keep the small fishing boat on the left and the mooring post on the right in the frame, making it a much more attractive composition overall.
