Gibraltar Rocks






















As we didn't make it to gibraltar rocks at sunrise, some rules about landscape photography were thrown out the window. Generally, things to consider, like every photo are exposure and composition. Landscape photos look best when you utilise the soft warm light at the start and end of the day. Polarizing filters allow you to cut reflections, make clouds more contrasty, and make the colours pop. Another technique to get the most out of your landscape is to take a panorama. Because landscapes are so vast, sometimes you can't fit it all in one frame. I took two landscapes, one vertical, and one horizontal, and although you have to take more shots when shooting vertically, you get a better result in the end because you get more in the frame. other things to think about are long exposures, forground interest, depth of feild and framing.
