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!
lol I got the opposite problem! Happy with my landscape/nature/wildlife shots but absolutely can’t figure out urban photography. I love looking at urban photography but when I’m in a city I just don’t see it, and I can’t capture what I don’t see. I stopped bringing my camera whenever I go into a city. Not worth bringing it and potentially having it stolen when I don’t get anything out of bringing it anyway.
To your problem, could it be the zoom and depth perception? Different lenses will bring different views. Sometimes I take a bunch of photos and stitch them together in order to get the result I want.
