Urban Landscape Photography

Natural landscape is not the only kind of landscape available. There is also urban landscape which deals with the photography of buildings and the urban jungle. Natural landscape has a wider variety and it entails mountain tops, shots of lightning streaking down from the sky, tumbling waterfalls, roiling seas and densely packed green foliage from the middle of a rain forest. Many of this kinds of landscape photography have become boring because too many photographers are doing it. In fact you may have probably taken photos of hills and waterfalls. As a beginner it is always wise to practice your photography at home where you can take photos of your backyard.

The urban landscape has always been a passion of mine because it forms the backdrop of a town or city, setting the tone and atmosphere around it. The treescape is a crucial element of that landscape and essential to any city.

You'll use different camera settings for urban landscapes than for rural ones. Did you know that cloudy weather is often better for shooting urban landscapes than sunny weather? Or that early morning or late evening can give you amazing effects? Urban landscapes are full of clean lines and angles. Following a digital photography guide, you can easily learn exactly what menu selections and settings to change to make the most of the contrasts of an urban landscape.
