Every good video explaining how to make any landscape photo stands out. Talking about how to have any landscape picture is very helpful for any photographer who wants to learn how to make their pictures stand out better.
G'day Will! Awesome vid thanks mate and coupled with your typical no-nonsense approach. I know you wont mind but I've shared this vid on our Camera Club public FB page as know doubt our followers will learn something valuable, you always explain things so well! Cheers mate.
Another awesome video. The tip "don't hide the mid ground" is a good one. I sometimes tend to get too low, and then I don't know why the photo doesn't look good. I now know why! And that image at 3:55? Wow! Just wow!
Love the ultra wide and wide angle lenses. I use 3 wides.Canon 11 24mm F4,Canon 17 40mm F4 and the Samyang 14mm F2.8.Most of my images are taken with these 3 lenses. Another fine presentation William. Thank you.
Quite an arsenal there! The 11-24mm is brilliant. I’ve ordered the Sony 12-24mm, as that extra width really opens up new possibilities. Thanks for viewing :)
Thanks William on some good tips, I think the one about (Avoid over emphasis on the foreground) is commonly overlooked. Really great location. Another video I found very helpful and enjoyable
Having picked up the Nikkor Z 14-24mm in January (my first ultra wide) finding your tips on wide angle lenses really helpful. I’m slowly applying and linking each tip together and can see the difference.👌🏻 Thank you for making these
Focus 1/3 of the way in, with a narrow aperture. There’s other factors potentially contributing to not getting your images sharp enough. Check out this video ua-cam.com/video/0djYuQVppOQ/v-deo.html I’ll also make a new one soon addressing ‘where to focus’. Cheers!
Hi William, thanks for the advice. Much appreciated. I know that camera shake is an issue also not using fast enough shutter speed for handheld. New Zealand looks like awesome local for photography. I'd like to make it down there sometime. Going to Zurich and the Alps next month. Ever shot there, any advice? Cheers Rick.
Thanks for the very informative video - a lot learned on wide angle composition. Just to ask, are you shooting handheld for this/ese? I watched one of your videos on sunrise photography, and you shot a photo in 1/25sec and your video was like you were shooting handheld.
@WilliamPatinoPhotography that's what I thought - I also have a7rv with 24-70mm gm ii, 70-200mm gm oss ii and now expecting a 200-600 tomorrow. But after your videos I was thinking whether I should get a 16-35. Usually 24mm was doing the job for landscapes, but now that I saw some of your pics with super powerful front ground, I will consider a UW lens. Thank you for all your videos - they are truly inspirational and educative. I learned a lot from you
It's interesting because I'm not always believing that we need to obey the rule of thirds. We can get a little bit stuck on that concept to be honest and people could argue all day whether it's good or bad or whatever, but for white angle lenses. Typically a lot of shots will kind of need to obey the rule of thirds because of the four ground, the mid ground and then what you have in the background so setting up composition with a wide angle lens is your full ground needs some feature it needs a story. It needs to draw the eyes in. I see so many great white angle photos, but they just have nothing in the foreground and it just feels like it was taken with a smart phone and no disrespect to smart phone Photography, but it just feels lame I started to get slightly lower. Navel height works
Best video I have seen in a long time on youtube!! Very good information.
Very kind, thank you mate.

Really pleased to hear that, thank you! All the best with it :)
I struggle with focus. What's your method for getting sharp images front to back? Hyperfocal distance? Focus 1/3 way into the scene? Etc.
Focus 1/3 of the way in, with a narrow aperture. There’s other factors potentially contributing to not getting your images sharp enough. Check out this video ua-cam.com/video/0djYuQVppOQ/v-deo.html I’ll also make a new one soon addressing ‘where to focus’. Cheers!

Thank you mate. Yes, always handheld :)
thanks very useful
You are welcome
Hey. Thanks for your videos. One question: do you focus 1/3 in the frame when using wide-angle?
Thank you. Yes, definitely on a wide. Check out my video on 'where to focus'. Just search my name and 'focus'. Cheers :)
I see you are shooting with Sony. Which gear was used in this video?
I’m using an A7RV. I’ve had all the A7R models since 2013. But all the big brands have great equivalents nowadays.
@WilliamPatinoPhotography that's what I thought - I also have a7rv with 24-70mm gm ii, 70-200mm gm oss ii and now expecting a 200-600 tomorrow.
