How to choose the best shooting position for landscape photography.

Have you ever seen the photos of excellent landscape photographers and wondered how they found such a beautiful shooting location? Or, maybe you want to travel and take photos, not sure if you will find the best location? The tips in this article will help you.

1. See the scenery of other photographers.

The first step in finding a good place for landscape photography is to look at the works of other photographers. You can find the works of photographers with 500 pixels on social media.

Looking at other photographers' works can help you in two ways:

This will help you find the most iconic, popular and exciting shooting location.

This gives you an idea of your potential position (such as finding a place where you can be exposed for a long time or like to work in black and white).

Go out and explore

After arriving at the destination, curiosity is the key to finding interesting topics and shooting locations. If you have finished your research, you already know the most iconic and popular places-they may attract you first.

But what about other locations? Not that famous? The answer can only be found through research. Just to see if you want to see the next corner or where this road will lead.

3. List of good places to take pictures

When you look at the works of other photographers and read landscape photography, you will learn interesting places and places.

I suggest you make a list of places you want to go in a day. On the Internet, you can find many places. If you find something interesting and don't take notes, just forget it and never find it again.

As time goes by, you can return to the list and search for the most interesting places again. Then you'll have learned enough and know what you want.

Another way is to create a list of places to visit. Then, you can study it and take notes when you find useful information, which gives you time to think about how long you will spend on the ground and how to make it fit your schedule. You can consider time and money and make a plan step by step.

4. Find a personal creative point of view

One of the dangers of looking at other photographers' works is the impulse to take pictures in the same place. There is nothing wrong with capturing iconic locations. Sometimes just move on, looking for an uncertain position. Pay attention to safety when shooting.

No matter where you go to take scenic photos, no matter how well-known these places are, I suggest you seek and find your ideal shooting ideas.
