FOREGROUND AND DEPTH

A good photo has a feeling that 'I have been there'. Landscapes, with particular views, can therefore often fall because they would be experienced as flat and boring.

The secret of a beautiful view is located in the deep space of the landscape, what the photograph experienced at the time of the visit. A photographic image can only own two dimensions: width and height, while the things that we are looking at are almost always three dimensional. It is important to try the third dimension - depth - to insert to your picture.

An ideal way to give depth to your photos is to place objects on the foreground. These objects can be trees, grass, rocks, flowers, railings, people, etc..
Natural frames work even as a foreground with the same, or perhaps greater effect.
