Double Rainbow

Landscapes are my favorite kind of photos to shoot and I’ve learned that the most important part isn’t just the subject matter, because most subject matter in nature will be beautiful, but the light. Shooting landscapes like this one have taught me to pay much more attention to the time of day during which I shoot, and this image was taken early in the morning when it was dark enough to get shadows and contrast between the hills and the sky but also right when the sky was lightening so the rainbows really lit up against the background. I shot this scene at a hundred different angles/frames and found that it was most powerful zoomed out to give it a more vast feeling with the most detail possible in the silhouette of the hills, the fog, and the different colors in the sky.

Creativity means making something new out of previously existing elements. I think photography one of the most personal and unique forms creativity can take in artistic mediums because if you give various photographers the exact same camera and the same scene to shoot, each will still come out completely different.
