Most people will only see the UA-cam version’s of a landscape photographer. Without taking into account the time and effort it takes to turn it into a business and an income to live on. Thanks for sharing again Andrew. Stay safe 🇦🇺
Lots of sense there Andrew. When you’re in a rut try something a bit different, it may not click at first but at least the brain’s having a bit of a workout.
Thanks for that Brian. So true, as the saying goes when things are not going right but you don't change anything they're gonna continue not going right so you gotta look at doing something different.
Hi Andrew, also a Perth boy born & bred. I find trying to vary different styles of photography helps as well such as wide field and deep sky astrophotography and even various forms of light painting rather than just focussing on one particular thing. The good thing is all of these can be as individual as you want them to be or to create some new challenges to break the bogged down moments we all get is to mix them together and create new challenges, sometimes the results will surprise you leaving you with a more positive outlook and kickstarting that creativity again. Love the work you do, always inspired by your projects. 🙏
Hey, Andrew have we met before you're not a teacher, are you? Taking a break from your normal genre of photography definitely has its advantages and can help rejuvenate your creativity. Fighting burnout can often be the biggest challenge diving into other sorts of photography can help. Taking a risk and surprising yourself with the results can I turn lead to more creative endeavours. Thanks so much for your support mate! 👍
@@Andrew_marr Ha! No we haven't and definitely not a teacher. Always up for a tag along though for local coastal shoots and learn from a master, just let me know!
Alex great to see another Perth lad who's into photography. As you know we have some amazing places here in Western Australia, an endless supply of amazing landscapes. I'm happy the videos are inspiring mate! 👍
I would also add patience into that mix as well Andrew as we've probably been there before and sometimes things won't come together and may take more than one attempt to get the envisioned image. As someone who also does architectural photography, flexibility is also needed as no matter how much planning and preparation goes into a trip, there are variables that could hamper you on the day and as such alternative compositions may need to be devised
Hey, that's a good one Jimmy! 👍 A good composition can often be improved with patience in waiting for the right light. Yeah adaptability is the name of the game if you want to have more wins! Thanks for sharing your thoughts mate.
Lovely video augmenting your points that I think are especially good for appreciating professionals who have the added pressure of trying to make a living with their passion, but also for amateurs like me who want to improve while enjoying it as a hobby.
Thank you, Andrew. Very good information. I find we all have times where we need to jumpstart the engine for photography. Gotta say though I live in the Northeast of the US, you on location videos always get me eager to explore. Keep up the good work. 👏🏻👏🏻
Wonderful video, Andrew. I find that without exception, the thing I DON'T want to do - especially when I know will be good for me - is the one thing I MUST do. And I always feel better afterwards. Always. Also, I really like the idea of restricting lens choices to improve our creativity. Take care, mate. :-)
Cheers Peter Hope you're well mate. It's a good point you mate, we often need to overcome the mental hurdle and just do it. Accomplishment can be a big reward. Thanks again! 👍
What it takes to be a landscape photographer? A camera and a landscape. As with any type of photography having an eye for content is paramount but as you can see from five minutes online lack of vision does not stop people from snapping images by the thousands and having a great time.

Thanks for the video and great advice Andrew. As a fellow Perth boy I’m amazed by some of your shots of familiar sites. Really inspiring.
