Variety is the spice of life, and landscape photography is certainly no exception. Most landscape photographers are lovers of the great outdoors, and visiting new locations is part of the enjoyment. From the best-known honeypot locations, photographed millions of times before and easily researched in photography location guidebooks, to virtually unknown locations that can be discovered in various ways, the world is brimming with amazing places that are just waiting to be photographed.
Finding new locations can be something of an art form for some photographers, particularly those who strive to capture the unseen. Poring over OS Maps or Google Maps’ satellite views, or simply going for long walks, are part and parcel of their approach, and luck can play a part too. Some may stumble upon these locations accidentally, while others will research obscure and unknown places for weeks before visiting.
After weeks of limited freedom due to self-isolation – just a small amount of exercise each day and the odd trip to the supermarket – photographic opportunities have been severely limited, and everyone will be itching to get out, not least landscape photographers, who have been kept away from their favourite locations. But when the curtain lifts and life begins to get back to normal, make sure you’ve planned your landscape shoots so that you have a shot list with detailed location information – all you need to do then is simply jump in your car to head out shooting once again.
