Today I bring you photos of nature because it is a month to pay tribute to everything that is important to remember and above all to take care of: forests, water and nature in general. It is a month to remember that all life hangs on it, among others ours, our friends, family, our pets, not to mention the species that we threaten and become extinct day after day. Today is about inspiration, in this mega guide you will find all the tips and tricks to achieve the nature photos more spectacular.
this month and every day, let us remember that the Earth is not only ours, it belongs to all the living beings that inhabit it, and of those who come after us, let us remember that step by step we rush to a point of no return. The climate change it is a reality that no longer looks far away on the horizon. Coral reefs disappear, the arctic melts, deserts increase, and extreme temperatures, we lose habitable land and countless animal and plant species.
It is up to us, (yes, it seems that we are alone in this), with all possible gestures, to drive away that apocalyptic end that we are approaching step by step. It is up to us to leave our children a place to live, air to breathe, fertile land, an opportunity. Tomorrow is already late, so, let’s remedy TODAYbecause if not, there may be no tomorrow for those who come after.
And in this little tribute that we want to pay to nature, I propose a gallery of images that will make you love nature (even more if possible), but first I would like to remind you of some topics and advice or ideas, to express it photographically speaking:-) . Let’s go there.
The light
Light is everything, also in nature photography. Don’t let an overwhelmingly beautiful landscape distract you from the importance of light in capturing it in your image.
The most photogenic hours are the blue hour (just before sunrise and just after the warm tones fade after sunset) and the warm or golden hour (just after sunset or just before sunrise).
adverse atmospheric phenomena
The rain, the snow, the fog, are not reasons for you to run to the car like the soul that the devil carries, they are reasons for you to protect your camera well and encourage yourself to express all the creativity that these moments can bring to your photographs. In bad weather, a good face (and good photos ;)).
Composition
Although it seems that the landscape photographs they do it alone, The truth is that sometimes, the more impressive a view is, the more difficult it is to capture that immensity and beauty in a flat image.
Let’s not forget that we went from three dimensions to two, and that means making an effort to transmit that three-dimensionality to our two-dimensional images. It is through composition that we flee from flat images, without scale, without depth or boring.
play with them natural framesreflections, depth of field, scale (for example adding a human element to the landscape), the point of view, the perspective, the lines, the law of the horizon or the rule of thirds can help you a lot in your landscape or nature compositions.
Macro
Nature is not only great landscapes, it is also the small beings and the details that inhabit it. Macro photography is undoubtedly a wonderful way to get into it.
If you are interested, take a look at these articles:
And if you still want more, put macro in the search engine and you will have many more articles on the subject 🙂 .
night photography
Not only during the day we can obtain wonderful photographs of nature, the night offers us unique moments, photography of stars, northern lights, being able to play with Lightpainting and a lot of other scenarios.
Remember that long exposure is a resource that you can also use during the day in clouds or water 🙂 .
So far, I hope you have gotten a slight idea of the possibilities it offers us (there are infinite more, but I didn’t fit them all and I don’t want to bore you), that you are here for a gallery of nature photos that I promised you at the beginning. Here it is 🙂 :
Don’t tell me that this wonder is not worth taking care of 🙂 What do you think of the images? Do you dare to create your own? I hope you have enjoyed it, if so, help us to give it visibility by sharing it with whoever you think might be interested. Thank you and see you next time.
