So I’m not a photographer, I’m someone who likes travelling and really enjoys taking photos at the different places I go with my phone. I’m usually really happy with my city photography. Food is ok. But landscapes are terrible.
The mountains look small and not steep. Depth and distance does not come through at all. It just seems flat and underwhelming on camera, when the view I’m seeing with my eyes is the most inspiring thing of all time. I wish I could capture half of that.
Is there any advice you have for me taking photos with my phone (google pixel 7). Is there some type of camera or lens I could look into hiring and learning how to use (2bh I’m pretty clueless on that stuff but would be down to learn). Thanks!
I like to find natural framing for a scene.

I haven’t worked this one up yet as there is a lot of latitude in the shadows. But notice the water leading to the mountains and the trees framing the whole scene? And I love water, so that helps.
I find I’m usually light limited as I’m traveling with the family and we get places when we get there. I’m sure this could look completely different another time of day if I had the time to invest in a truly great shot.
Glacier?
In Banff along the Icefields Parkway. Short hike.
Cool shot😎
Leading lines and sub framing nice pic 👍
Nice shot. Is this in Canada?
Affirmative. Banff National Park along the Icefields Parkway. A short hike into the woods.
Great shot. I think it could be cool if you crop out the bottom so the water appears to be flowing off the bottom of the frame
