I like to think of landscape photography as a naturally occurring Easter egg hunt. Someday I'd really like to be able to travel and take shots like yours Dread.

Well I bought a tripod today so I'm looking forward to getting out and stepping up my landscape/sunset game. I'm gunning for you Dread Head.

I just realized I haven't posted any actual pictures in here.

I used to tone map.




But then I realized that was stupid.

The second from the bottom is definitely the best but the first has potential too I think. Regardless of foggy haze they all look horribly underexposed to me though.

Tried my hand at a triptych. Some 1000 year old shrubbery for those of you who refuse to acknowledge the cool superiority of concrete and steel landscapes.

These are awesome, especially the middle.

That tumblrish filter has drained the life out of these photos, maybe take it down a few notches.

Point taken but it's not a filter. I figured out how to get that style in LR and I've probably been hitting it too hard in my photos lately.

Look at photos everyday. Create a folder and save the ones that aren't just technically good but have some type of impact on you. Do this for a month and then look through them. The common characteristics and themes you can pull from them are a good starting point for answering the more abstract questions like "why you're shooting".

Actually it's the number of times your photo is quoted on the internet website forums dot somethingawful dot com.

What about when someone quotes your photo to tell you to throw your camera in a canyon and kill yourself?

A lot of great photography comes from people that have found ways to love the unique terribleness of their respective suburbia.
