Adding Scale to Your Landscapes

Adding Scale to Your Landscapes: "We often think of landscapes as sweeping vistas fading away into the distance, taking our eyes on a journey through flower strewn fields, cascading mountain peaks, skyscraper speckled skylines and rolling waters.

However, that sense of size doesn’t always translate to the photo you’re viewing later on your computer screen."

Toolbox: Optical Filters for Black & White | DPmag.com

Toolbox: Optical Filters for Black & White | DPmag.com: "The limited palette of black-and-white photography distills the world around us to rich hues and subtle silver tones, making composition, form, texture and contrast your tools for composing an attractive image. Colors and hues translate differently when desaturated, however.
