Living in lowa and trving to become a photographer specializng in landscape( 风景 ) can be quite a calenge, mainly beaurse the com state lacks geogaphical vration.
Although landscapes in the Midwest tend to be quite similar eihter farm fields or highway , sometimes I fnd distinctive character in the hills or lakes. To make some of my landscape shots , I have trave;ed urto four hours away to shoot within 10-minture time farme , I tend to travel with a few of my friends to satte parks or to the countryside to go on adventures and take photos along the way.
Being at the right place at the right time is decisive in any style of photography. I often leave early to seek the right destinations so I can set up early to avoid missing the mommet I am attempting to photo-graph. I have missed plenty of beautiful sunsetsrises due to being on the sport only five minutes before the best moment.
One time my friends and I drove three hours t0 Devil's Lake, Wisconsin , to climb the purple quartz(石英) rock around the lake. After we found a crazy-looking road that hung over a bunch of rocks, we decided to photograph the scene at sunset. The position enabled us to look over the lake with the sunset in the background. We managed to leave this spot to climb higher because of the spare time until sunset.However, we did not mark the route(路线) so we ended up almost missing the sunset entirely. Once we found the place , it was stressful getting lights and cameras set up in the limited time. Still , looking back
on the photos , they are some of my best shots though they could have been so much better if I would have been prepared and managed my time wisely.
