I finally understand landscape photographers pain, 2 months of constant landscape photo uploads then I upload 1 photo to my art nude project and it gets more engagement than all 40 of the landscape photos I uploaded combined.It doesn’t help there is only so many landscape locations where you live then you are out of content.Also landscape thread, what are you shooting? What is working, what isn’t?[EXIF data available.

>engagementWhere, Insta? It's full of horny jeets.
>>4370355That's just how people work. The most famous landscape paintings either include people or use a fantastical art style. If you actually spend time browsing landscape photos for fun I'm afraid you're the weirdo.
>Beautiful art is less popular than porn pretending to be art:o
>>4370355ezinclude nudes in your landscape photos
>>4370355landscape photography is the midlife crisis sports car oh photography. ever looked at who's doing landscape? middle aged men. mostly to escape their family life or after a breakup/divorce.you do landscape for yourself. not for internet points from horny zoomers on social media. you do it to get out, to spend a day in nature, to have something nice you can print and hang on your wall.if you upload it to social media and expect external validation you are a woman or a zoomer.
>>4370355>Also landscape threadupload one of your landscape photos then
>>4370355I used to shoot Landscapes just for the landscape. But what really sets my best landscape photographs apart was the human's interacting with it or animals sometimes. Like my dog running through the marshy grasslands of a saltwater marsh. Or in the case of my wife her hiding topless amidst all the grass with only your breasts poking out like two flat shield volcanoes of pink and Crimson skin tones in a sea of green.

>>4371441If you had a higher resolution full frame camera you could see her tits. Alas you cucked yourself by letting mft's low resolution and high noise censor your photo. At least it was 1/4lb lighter amirite? Who needs to see tits when you can laugh at how light your camera is?
>>4370411This is the correct answer.
>>4370355Silly you, use the nude as element in your landscapes if you want engagement. A landscape usually is better if it includes a person or other element to give a reference of scale and depth anyway.I myself like to snap "landscapes" I encounter but honestly only real use I find for those is soothing screen backgrounds.

>>4372733>'or other element to give a reference of scale and depth'Never quoted that, i said you were wrong for trying to fit people into landscaping aesthetics.Here's a famous example anyways, a bit saturated due to XP, there's one around that looks much more like the original.
>>4372753That is an excellent screen background and famous because being the default background in a popular OS for a while. Edited version removes any distractions. The photograoher definitely deserved to get paid well for the original. I myself found the brightness of it it annoying and used low key snaps of my own instead but I admit it's a matter of taste.(I should have the version with Teletubby house and Bill Gates as Teletubby somewhere but can't find it now.)
It's so over for 30 years old virgin landscape photographers. Sex has polluted everything. There are no horizons left.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_of_genresLandscape is low tier. Sorry, that's just what the "Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture" decided.
>>4372771I got curious and tried to search for contemporary landscape photography:https://duckduckgo.com/?q=contemporary+landscape+photographyOh dear.
>>4372771have sex included in the landscape, that will get you attention
>>4372807>paint scene fellating your lords and masters good! Best!Yeah lmao, typical feudo-intellectualsI am so glad quirky modern art jewshit replaced this.
>>4372812Not really contemporary landscape is like pic related. Landscape became "man altered landscape"
>>4372815I have never seen a vagina
>>4372807Landscape is high tier in american, russian, and nazi german schools of art. France can suck my cock.
>>4372753They took this with a RZ67 and Velvia (so top tier camera and film), yet it's a shitty tasteless landscape idk why I really don't like this image

>>4372819Well, I stopped bothering when I got to this one in the 'Contemporary Landscape Photographers Capture Far More Than...' article.
>>4372857NGL that's kino
>>4372857>tall enough to see over the man made horrors but not tall enough to cross itsad
>>4372845Historical painting serves no artistic purpose. It's essentially kings saying "painting my version of my exploits in a glorious fashion, and painting my enemies as defeated and ugly, is the best thing an artist can do". Historical painting today is a bunch of dated propaganda stuffing the history books.Scroll down, the article details how as culture evolved and euros left their dark ages that the hierarchy changed. Landscapes, animals, and natural beauty in general were elevated. Even then, the hierarchy was colored with belief in religions we now know are objectively false, untrue loads of amoral, primitive horseshit, ie: "he who paints man is great because man is created in the image of yahweh" - we can no longer buy this. Humans were not created by yahweh. Humans evolved when a bunch of monkeys made the conscious choice to live better and gradually adapted to their decision to be the kings of the plains instead of jaguar food hanging from trees.And with the invention of photography we put the nail in historical painting. What good is historical painting, over any other way of recounting events? A negative taken at the time and place has more verisimilitude than an embellished drawing.
>>4372861I was thinking about historical painting as the paintings which depict mythology and other types of artistic imagery like pic related
>>4372868Historical painting ran out of mythology to paint fastIt takes thousands of years to turn a dumb bedtime story into a serious myth and one week to run out of material

>>4372766>I myself found the brightness of it annoyingThere's supposedly the scan of the original and it looks much more toned down, then there's the alternative shot with the original colours too but with a cloud blocking the sunrays, it really is all about that lighting in the grass.>>4372837Get some taste, subhuman

What did you expect bro? For people to care about your snapshit of a tree? Do you spend a bunch of time looking at landscape photography done by others, I doubt it. Even paintings of landscapes were considered inferior to figure and portrait paintings. Landscapes are just inherently less interesting than other subjects.
maybe its the connection of 'hey maybe i could do this, all it needs is a kit lens and good lights' vs the pro lens fullframe landscapes need.
