Description

Landscape photographers are different than wildlife photographers. In this premium video, Outdoor Photography Guide’s David Johnston shows you what the landscape shooters can learn from the ultra patient wildlife shooters.

One lesson is how to employ the telephoto lens to seclude the subject. If it is an animal or a bird, the subject is easy to spot but often moving. As a landscape photographer, you are searching with your telephoto for an interesting subject, for instance, fluttering leaves. Like wildlife shooters, landscape specialists need to be aware of composition so that the main subject doesn’t overlap with opposing objects. David calls this “edge patrol.”

As a landscape photographer, if you stay patient and slowly zoom in and out with your telephoto, you can isolate your subject and eliminate interfering edges. Wildlife shooters use this technique. David demonstrates precise composition common to wildlife photographers.
