| Congratulations now that you've decided to be a | | | | out and about. |
| landscape photographer you're going to need | | | | Good walking shoes that are at least water |
| some basic non photographic equipment to get | | | | resistant are a must, sooner or later when you're |
| started. Landscape Photography just like other | | | | out in the field its either going to rain or you're |
| forms of photography has its own set of unique | | | | going to come across a creek, so the more |
| challenges that need to be considered and | | | | waterproof your shoes are the better. They |
| prepared for. | | | | should also have really good ankle support to stop |
| You'll definitely need a torch on almost every | | | | your ankles from rolling whilst you are out in the |
| occasion you'll be turning up to your location well | | | | wilderness. |
| before the sun comes up and leaving well after | | | | Always take some insect repellent out with your |
| the sun has gone done. It's definitely no fun trying | | | | as well as there is nothing more uncomfortable |
| to make your way out of a location particularly if | | | | than arriving on location only to watch a beautiful |
| there are lots of trees with no light. Also if you | | | | sunset or sunrise before your eyes whilst you are |
| are taking seascapes late in the evening its | | | | being eaten alive by insects. |
| extremely dangerous walking around on slippery | | | | Finally, I always take a jacket out with me no |
| rocks without being able to see where you are | | | | matter what the whether as you never know, |
| walking. | | | | one day I may become lost whilst I'm out and |
| Make sure you bring along a large water bottle, | | | | about and I definitely don't want to freeze over |
| you nearly always have to walk to your location | | | | night. |
| and it's nearly always a long walk over rough | | | | By taking a few precautions before going out into |
| terrain. Normally you'll then spend 1.5 hrs on | | | | the wilderness you'll have a safe and rewarding |
| location before having to make the arduous walk | | | | experience whilst taking landscape photographs. |
| home so water is really important whilst you're | | | | |
