If anyone travels to Las Vegas, be sure to visit Red Rock Canyon. You can take the 13 mile scenic drive and landscape vistas open up all over. I have taken thousands of images there over the years. When you exit the park, heading back to Vegas, you will pass the Red Rock Overlook. It gives you a view of the entire park. You can take panoramas, close ups with a telephoto lens, and more. The best times I have found are at sunrise and near sunset for the golden light. Bad weather, such as snow, rain, fog…make for really great shots as opposed to seeing the usual blue skies.

Renowned photographer Simon Marsden, who specialised in gritty b&w images of subjects including mystical landscapes, gothic graveyards and old ruins, has died aged 63.

Simon first developed an interest in photography when his father, a keen landscape photographer, gave him a Leica for his 21st birthday.

‘I instantly became hooked on photography. What intrigued me most was the magic of time and light and the enigma of “reality” that these elements conjured up,’ Simon wrote on his website.

‘Over the years I have tried to portray this in various forms in my work… The first roll of film that I shot was of cardboard cut-outs of ghosts that I arranged in tableaux in the garden.’

One of my favorite places for landscape shooting is the Tyrol district that borders Germany/Austria. I spent a week there in 2008 and I found the valleys, mountains and trails to be wonderful for photography.

A nice little article, good reminder about the tripod. I have two and often tend to either forget (or not bother) to take one with me. Don’t forget the camera self timer is also useful instead of a remote.

Your photo by Curious Spider, of the large-gravel road shot from just above the road, violates the rule of respecting the depth of field as the rocks int he foreground are out of focus. I suspect this was a test, or “plant” done intentionally to see of anybody noticed…

Another point I would like to make about depth of field is that it is very important to k ow where to focus to maximize the depth of field even if the aperture value is high landscapes are focused one third into the scene to get maximum sharpness. In low light when auto focus does not work it’s good to know about hyperfocal distance.
