In The Landscape Photography Book, professional photographer and bestselling author Scott Kelby teaches you how to shoot and edit jaw-dropping landscape photographs. Scott covers all you need to know, as he discusses everything from his go-to essential gear to camera settings to the photographic techniques that cover a wide variety of landscape situations and locations. Whether you’re looking to capture a beautiful scene at sunrise, shoot a silky waterfall, create star trails at night, or show an epic location in a sweeping panorama, Scott’s got you covered.
Among many other topics, you’ll learn:
– The best ways to scout locations (including online resources for faraway locations)

– Where to focus your camera for tack-sharp images from foreground to background
– How to shoot HDR and panoramas (and HDR panos!)
– The best night photography techniques for shooting the Milky Way, strair trails, and light painting
– When and how to use landscape-specific gear and techniques such as ND filters, focus stacking, and Bulb mode
Once the shoot is over, Scott covers his process for editing landscape images. You’ll quickly learn the essential ways to bring out the wow factor in your landscape images–from the basics of white balance and exposure settings to the use of graduated and radial filters, how to make your colors pop, when to convert your image to black and white (and how to do it), and much more.

This book is awesome! Full of really useful tips and information. It is easy to read and understand. As a newcomer to Landscape Photography this book covered basic need to knows through to Post Processing. Probably the best and most useful photography book I have ever bought. My photography improved so much after reading this book. Thoroughly recommended!!
by Mark Sterry-Blunt
So well explained.
The chapter on post-processing is thirty pages of gold nuggets and worth every penny of the purchase price of the whole book, all by itself. This book does not live in one of my book-cases but on my desk by my computer.

Just buy it. Its straightforward and too the point in a very concise no nonsense way. Good for beginners or intermediate. Great tips.

Superb little book. So many thanks Scott Kelby. Lots of great ideas, tips and suggestions to follow up on. Also enough technical information to allow the reader to work their way through such things as focus stacking , creating quality panoramas and working in less than ideal conditions to name but three. Small enough to be portable in your camera bag. A good buy.

I like Scott kelby. Good honest reading with a touch of humour. His jokes are terrible but his written words are wisdom if you’re looking to learn.
