The Weekly Landscape Thread
This weekly thread, starting on a Friday, allows us to showcase our Landscape photos and get some feedback.
Opening up discussions, not only on content, style, composition & techniques, but also on the emotion in the image, and of course about the place itself.It’s easy to participate
Post an image or short essay with a title and description. To make it easier to view in the forum, all comments should include the original title and at least one of the original images as a quote.
Thread Guidelines:
- This thread is for sharing and developing our Landscape photography skills.
- Entries can be a single image or a short photo essay (2 to 10 connected images that tell a story).
- Give your entry a clear title and perhaps also explain why you took it, or the story it tells.
- Provide constructive feedback on others’ images/essays.
Try to go beyond simple praise or dismissal and explain why you like it, or what caught your eye.
”Likes” are encouraged too. - Negative feedback and suggestions are also OK (be polite, honest, and constructive).
Giving feedback is just as important as receiving feedback, both help to improve our artistic and technical skills.
What is a Landscape photo?
This means different things for different people. For me, it includes a wide range of photos taken outside,… from wide sweeping vistas to smaller details found along the route. Seascapes, landscapes, cityscapes, woodland shots, landscapes at night with some stars, and lots more are all OK. They could also include man-made objects and people or animals outside, but they are not usually the main subject. Show us, with your photos, what Landscape photography means to you.
Motivation
I love to go hiking in the natural world and capture photos along the way. It keeps me fit (physically and mentally) and provides some beautiful memories. Processing those images when I return is fun too, it often helps to enhance what I saw.
Downloading and reposting
It’s often challenging to verbalise comments about images. Instead, it’s sometimes easier to “show.” Unless the original poster specifically states otherwise (in each original post), participants are free to download, alter, and repost images in replies to express their analysis and critique. The reposted image may remain permanently or be removed after a short period. Downloaded and altered images shall not be used for any other purposes or uploaded elsewhere.
Enough said,… Go out, enjoy the open air, take some photos. Bring back the memories and post them here in the Weekly Landscape Thread 😊
...looking forward to seeing your images,

Lake Bled
From a recent trip to Slovenia,…
A visit to Lake Bled is a must, especially when you get to sample the famous Cream slice cakes at Bled.
These shots were taken near the end of a long 17km hike :-)The first shows the castle, the second the ismall sland in the middle of the lake.

Reminds me of the spot in Hitchcock's North by Northwest, which was shot in Indiana or Ohio. I guess you take the picture and run -- the other way!
(Pete: I did a slight edit for you by inserting a blank line before the photo. This opens the viewer when you click on the photo.)

I'm not sure if it's landscape or not, but I visited some gardens (Threave Gardens in Scotland) and Norma asked me to take some flower pictures. So I did.
And this one as well.
-
Fabulous sky!
Welcome aboard! -
Somewhere for my "go to" list.
No picture of the cream slice? -
These dahlias make great subjects for playing with compositions. You could try a square crop, or locating the flower off-centre, or even partly overlapping the edge.
-
Thanks for the feedback. I wanted to keep the out of focus greenery in there as a contrast. I could try a square crop, but I'd need to remove some of the green.

Hi Pete,
Welcome to the Weekly Landscape Thread :-)
Amazing sky, looks like something really wild is just about to happen; especially with the people on the right waiting and watching.
The prominent red sign in the image somehow also seems like it could be saying "danger is coming !! "
Chasing storms to get pictures like this sounds fascinating, and a bit scary.
I get the feeling that with the global warming we have, that it is getting easier to find big powerful storms :-( -
Nice golden colours in the water around the bird. This is what I'd call an "intimate landscape" shot :-)
-
I guess it was a "Landscaped garden" so all shots here would be landscape photos by definition ;-)
Pretty flowers, bold colours! -
Damn!
Frightening.
Beautiful.
Magnificent.
Welcome aboard!

Thanks,
Well, here you go,... a sample picture of the famous "Blejska kremšnita", but it's not from me :-) -

We have a rather unflattering name for the Blejska kremšnita here...
