Some landscapes, for a change

Photo Newsletter

Back from the road trip, slowly recovering. It got a little weird -- I did a ton of research into Nevada and then we ended up on a route that took us through the Grand Canyon and into Nevada not at all.

Landscape photography -- like studio photography -- is something that I do sort of compulsively, not really out of enjoyment but out of desire to understand its secrets. I don't really have any idea how to approach it but my hope is that flinging myself at it repeatedly -- pointing a camera at a landscape and then seeing what happens -- will produce... if not progress then at least learning?

Main learning here is... editing? That last shot especially looked terrible in camera but with a little bit of slider pushing (and especially dehaze) we got to... respectable?
