can anyone tell me what is necessary in landscape photography, is there any thing that the photographer should care about in taking such a photo? also what technique and equipments are used ?
Hi, when I look at landscape I take in the negative space as well as the picture. I shoot several shots to see what appeals to me the most. I use the basic camera, tripod and time cause the scene is always changing.

Simply, rule of two thirds.
Have something lead the eyes into the photograph.
I prefer early morning as the sun rises or a nice rainy day with lots of dark clouds.
Polarizer
ND Grad filters
Tripod
Lots of hot coffee on cold mornings
A lot of people tend to shoot wider, such as 35mm and under, to achieve a sweeping landscape feel. Too maximize the large space in your photo to keep things in focus, make sure to shoot at a smaller aperture - f8/ - f/11 is ideal.
Good morning all thanks for the comments.This is the place for sharing photos and having a chat there will also be games and other ideas.TJ has suggested a relay game.That goes like this perhaps you start out with a farm photo and ask for a pig.The next person posts a pic of a pig and asks for bacon. The next person posts a pic of bacon and asks for .... etc.Link to the relay game ↓ …See More
"Thanks John !..the crispness surprised me somewhat as i had used a 13mm close-up/macro extension tube attached to a 50mm Prime, the shot didn't need any sharpening in PS either. Oh, and no not yet, though i keep trying.. lol !!.."
