Photo Tips How to Compose Photographs When Using Wide Angle Lenses

Using wide angle lenses, either on your camera or your smart phone, to shoot scenery can be tricky. If you're not careful, that magnificent range of mountains in front of you can become a series of mole hills. The trick is foreground and you have to have a strong one - look for some interesting structure - a rock, flowers, animal - just something strong that will give the picture an anchor.
We hope you enjoy these photo tips and that they improve your photography. Let us know in the comments if there is a specific photography related issue that you'd like to hear about.
