You are invited to upload one or more of your landscape photos and, if you’d like, to accompany your image with some commentary: challenges you faced in making the image? your intent for the image? settings? post-processing decisions? why you did what you did? the place and time? or an aspect you’d like feedback on? And please feel free to ask questions of others who have posted images or to join the discussion. If you don’t feel like using words, that’s OK too—unaccompanied images (or unaccompanied words, for that matter) are also very much welcomed. As for the technicalities, the usual forum guidelines apply: files < 1 MB; image size <1000 px maximum dimension.

 

I suppose there’s a reason it’s called “landscape orientation.” I just went back through the last several months of posts to these threads, and found that of the last 137 photos posted, only 5% used a square format and 4% used portrait orientation. I’m curious about how my view of landscapes would change if I started seeing with other formats in mind. This train of thought started because I did a radical crop on this image and changed it from landscape to portrait orientation, and if it hadn't been for those half-visible ripples, it likely would have gone square.
