Hi Attilio, thank you for your hard work. Patience is so hard sometimes. Learning to arrive early and leave late is not the rushed lifestyle of modern-day existence. Go early, stay late, and realize that is the new norm. Calm down! Enjoy the moment. So hard sometimes. Question: Have you ever considered using a video head instead of a ball head for your DSLR / mirrorless? Once you switch, you will never use a ball head again. Just a thought. Once again, thank you.

After watching this video the only sentence that comes to my mind is: YOU MAKE SO MUCH SENSE!!! This is the main reason of it all: use common sense. Thank you for creating it. The real help for many is just to use your head first! Good job!
This is the most useful video on landscape photography tips I’ve ever seen. I made all of these mistakes, now aware of them, and my photos are improving as a result.
You are an inspiration to me. You made me fall in love with landscape photography. You made me fall in love with extra-long exposure photography. May God bless you always and keep posting such amazing pictures and videos. Thank you!!!
I’ve seen many videos about mistakes people make while taking photos, but the ones you brought up were by far, the most relevant to me. Especially number 2 ! Thanks for sharing...
Painting starts with a blank canvas and the painter puts things in the image. Photographers start with the world in front of them and select what to exclude. The more we exclude, the greater the emphasis on the subject that remains. Even if we include a lot of "white space", vast areas of emptiness, it simply underscores the isolation of the small remaining subject.
Thank you for another great video. So much of what you say is not only about camera technique, but about a philosophy of life: taking time, embracing reality, clarifying vision, making choices, and practicing discipline. You speak at exactly the right pace for the message you are delivering, and you have the kind of voice that could carry that message on radio, even wthout the images and music, which are sublime. I'm sure you could write a book called Soul Photography based on your video scripts and your prints.
You are such an inspiration. Your photos bring tears to my eyes. I have made all of those mistakes. I am very new to photography and I can't begin to tell you how much your channel has helped me. Thank you
I also release the shutter at the end of an exhale to reduce camera shake. I absolutely agree to spend time at a location, multiple days if possible, to really see your composition options. And never ever take the large camera touring with your wife. I take my smartphone pics and then come back alone to the location later (years sometimes) with the big camera.
A great video, Attilio! I agree with everything you said, especially about tripods. I usually take my tripod everywhere but on those few occasions that, I don’t I always regret it.
Great reminders ... especially taking too many images , and to slow down and enjoy the moment ! Thanks again Inspirational and pleasure to watch Keep them coming !
Attilio your so right by saying to get the perfect shot is by using a tripod...It was your fantastic videos that taught me to do long exposure photos crisp and sharp...Also your so right that your photos come from the heart and what your mood is at that time...I cant thank you enough for your dedication on here in were you explain everything so easy...Hope your keeping well friend and be safe for now...
I did make a mistake in using an low end inexpensive tripod. I didn't know better at the time. When I attended a night sky photography workshop and my camera fell off the extended center column I decided I needed a better tripod. I finally got one with a nice ball head this year. I'm also learning to use what I have. Thank you!!!
I' bought my 14 24 12 years ago, yes maybe I made the same mistake you're talking about, but I'm so happy of this mistake.Today I still have it, love it and I use it every single time I go out. About the tripod, agree with you Atilio. A landscape photographer muzt have the best one he can afford
I am so happy you are back, Attilio! Yes, I make most of these mistakes, but the biggest one I make is rushing. As I go out, I see so many beautiful images in my mind, and I want to get them all! Went out yesterday and took 750 images in about two hours -- I ended up with four! Thanks for the tips and I will certainly use them all!!!
You know, you were the first photographer whose videos i started to watch on CZcams a year ago. Then, over the time, i have subscribed to quiet a few other nice photographers to improve further my skills. But, now, when you are back, i see how distinct your videos still are: besides technical details and tipps, they are really inspiring. Thanks a lot for your great job!!
I have made numerous mistakes that you have talked about in this video. Now to correct myself and execute your lesson. I definitely make the mistake way to often of taking too many photos. Trying to pick out the best one which is harder as well. You are right, to take the time to take the one you want. Thank you for another great video.
A steady tripod is a must. Don’t go cheap... You don’t want an unstable wobbly tripod to hold your expensive, precious camera gear. You might consider a carbon version to save weight. A solid stable ball head is also a must for your tripod. Great tips 😊
All good reminders, keep them coming. I always regret when I did not take my tripod with me. Either I get blurry images, or I had to crank the ISO too high and get noise. Just take it and use it!
Thanks Attilio, sorry to say I often break rule no 1. With Olympus E-M5 MK3 and IBIS of 5.5 f stops I frequently take shots just under 1sec which are quite sharp. Of course you cannot do long time exposures but it really is wonderful. Now I have really upset your day. Thanks again, stay safe.
One year late but Happy Birthday! Thank you so much for all of your videos they have helped me improve my landscape photos greatly. I’m revisiting all your videos with a better understanding of techniques used and I will surely hit the like button this time around. Thanks again.
Attilio, excellent video about the mistakes we make in landscape photographs. Excuse my audacity because I would like to expose a mistake that I have experienced and I would like to share it: "never go out to take photos with someone who does not have the same passion for photography as you do". Their company will only bring you restlessness and embarrassment when you notice that they are anxiously waiting for you to finish "playing" with your camera. Better go out alone. Hug and thank you very much for your interesting videos.
Attilio you are addictive! I'm grateful for this video. I adore your long exposure photos, and I think I had an epiphany watching this. It dawned on me just why I like them so much: because long exposures are SLOW, you freeze the water, you stretch the clouds... when I take long exposures I have to stop, think, feel. It's exactly what you say in the video, the experience is more important than the shot. Do I make these mistakes? Yes, plus plenty more as a bonus. But in my favourite type of photo, which is milky way landscapes, I don't make them and this is probably why I love it so much. You raise awareness with your videos, "see you" next Thursday.
Ciao Francesca! I just love reading your comment... I feel I accomplished something with these videos when I sense connection! Thanks for taking the time to share it with me. See you on Thursday 😍
Another one in the back of the net , Attilio ! Thank YOU !! Keep up the great work. You're so right about not taking too many photos. That said, I remember smiling during one of your past videos (I cant remember the location) but you came across this amazing geyser with hot steam erupting. You casually said that it was not your thing (or similar words) and walked on. I thought at that moment 'this man is very selective'.
"In landscape photography you do not hold the camera with your hand. Period".... how refreshing it is to hear someone teach proper technique, contrary to a few others I'll not mention here. I love the giant roll of 120 film on the shelf behind you. Do you shoot any film? I shoot Nikon digital and 4x5 and 120 film.... anyway, I just found your channel. Subscribing.
Another beautiful post. Thank you for reinforcing your 5 techniques. I have determined these concepts over time but have always felt I was wrong based on other's posts. Now I'm more confident as to what I'm doing. Thank you.
Attilio. You have changed my thought pattern for my photography. I am very grateful. Very special tutorial Attilio and extremely well presented. Thank you.
Yep did the wide angle lens mistake. Fortunatelly I did not paid that much for it. Love your images specially the one of the tree with yellow flowers in the middle of the lake.
Hello Atttlio, thanks for another great video. Sometimes it is a challenge to avoid these things that you described. I hope that remember during my next trips. Stay save and it is really a pleasure that you are back. 😎🙏
Thank you for all your effort in explaining and communicating the information in a simple and easy way to followers. I learned a lot from you and still benefit from your valuable knowledge and experience. I wish you the best and hope that you will continue with your valuable and useful advice. I am from Bahrain and thank you again
I cannot agree more on your remark to buy a good tripod, I bought one in the early seventies ( for the first and only time I won some money in a photo competition) and almost 50 years later I still use it.
Good Points, The problem today is Speed seems to be the No.1 topic when it comes to todays Cameras.I think the Tri pod helps us to slow down too. Makes us think a little more before we click the shutter. We are not out there to shoot 20 FPS. Spray & prey as they say. Look, listen, Enjoy. That's all a part of the process.
Great video. A photo is as much about what it isn’t as what it is. I completely agree with your thoughts on wide angle. Too wide an angle in landscapes often overemphasizes the foreground, like some grasses or rocks, at the expense of the main subject. The main subject gets lost.
When I used my Nikon DSLR, my favorite lense for long expo was 20mm Nikkor. I used it for 90% of shoots! Now I use Sony mirrorless camera and the first lense I bought was 18mm! It's perfect focal lenght for me for landscape photos! Of course, rest of shoots I make with my other lenses (35,45,85mm) that I have and I really like them! Keep rolling, Attilio! 🤘🏼
Thank you, Attilio, for another helpful, inspiring and charming (both you and your photographs) video. I am waiting for your next new one. Greetings from Guatemala where nature is amazing.
Very true when you mention the lens and how easy it is to fall for the widest and best lens in the market. I still shoot with an old NIKKOR 28-70 2.8D and very happy with it :-)
Thank you very much, Attilio, for this video. I've been making all of these mistakes! You are giving kind of different perspective on how to approach and even think about landscape photography.. this will help a lot! Grazie!
Uh oh, think I made all the mistakes you mentioned... 🤣 Okay, let’s start with using a tripod! Thanks for the video, it is very helpful! Your photos are so stunning beautiful, I have no words for it~ 🙏💕
Going to Point Betsie to photograph. Every time I go there I see many new thinks. Lake Michigan area has much to offer and a nice ride to get there. Thank you. I like a slower pace I'm nearly 70.
Arriving too late. I do it all the time, but I'm making an effort to get better. I don't run late for most things, but for getting out shooting, always. Sigh. Gorgeous photos. I love that spot around 10:20 in your video. I go there a lot at different times of year to take advantage of the changing sun angle. That park is one of my favorite places on the planet.
Good advice to keep in mind! As a travel writer I end up taking dozens of quick shots on the fly due to time and am usually not happy with most of them. I've made a habit of getting up very early so I have time for some quality sunrise photos on my press trips. I have also found joy in exploring new towns at night for interesting photo options.
Great tips Attilio... especially about using the 'lenses you have'... and the tripod... errr I've made 3 mistakes already and not sure how I'm gonna sneak another one into the house! Your Wanaka Tree is the best I've seen! I often refer back to the L/R editing of your video for my own edits. Hope you can return again to NZ one day soon. Thank you once again :)
Many thanks indeed Atillio. Your videos are always a pleasure to watch, and your tips invaluable. I especially appreciate your talk on lenses and in not getting bogged down into the extreme wide angle zoom world. I presently use a 24mm AiS Lens, when I can afford one, a 20mm 1.8G will be within my bag. Thanks to viewing crisp sharp images you have created using one. I do believe this lens offers great value for money too.
I am guilty of always trying to take landscape photos without my tripod since I a VR lens. So, I will take your advice, tip #1, and use my tripod. With that said, I found all the tips helpful.
I am always happy if you present new videos! Your experience is very important for me. Since today I have learned so much. And if I‘m to be honest, I‘ve made all of these mistakes in the past. Best wishes. And I hope for new content soon!!
I shoot with a Nikon D810. When I started I thought it was all about the super wide zoom as well. I bought a 15-30 2.8. it was a waste of money that never leaves my bag. Most of my best shots come from a 20mm 1.8 or 50mm 1.8. Lesson learned.
Hola, been there and done that (all the mistakes you mentioned including buying more stuff) Thanks for the reminders And as always, the music is just fantastic! Bravo Thanks and stay safe
Great tips Attilio, all i have are three lens ranging from 16-35 and 70-300 but my go to and favourite is my 24-70 for some reason all my best shots are taken with this lens and yes everything i do is on a tripod
Interesting point on tripods...not so much for the camera shake, but simply that it slows you down and you can fine-tune and perfect the shot! As for me... I find I mostly shoot at 18 on my 18-35 (full frame)... consciously trying to break out of that and go longer when using that lens. That said, would love something that goes to 16 or 14mm 😎
Beautiful photos as usual. I do most of my photography with my cellphone. I have a couple of tripods that I use with that. Though I have to admit most of the time I use those tripods for night mode exposures, only occasionally using them for landscape photos. I do use a tripod with my Canon DSLR.
The combination of your shots and the music you use is so uplifting!
Thank you!
Glad to see you’re starting to make CZcams videos again, we really missed you😉 now I just got a remember to keep my left hand under the lens😳
The music of the end is beautiful!
How can anyone not be inspired by Attilio, the images along with the beautiful music is totally awesome.
Thanks a lot my friend!
When it comes to landscape photography this man has a bundle of knowledge thanks for making this video .
😍

Its a blessing to hear your honesty towards your frustrations. I, for sure, am helped a lot with your tips. Thank you!👍
I really like the idea of deciding what you don't want in a photo not just what you want in it. This seems to be an obvious twist now! Thanks.
I will make a video about this point...this is how much I think it is important!
@@AttilioRuffo Looking forward to it!

🙏🙏🙏
Don't shoot too many photos.
Great tip! Thanks Attilio.
Sometimes it is hard to resist...
Thank you Attilio! I found myself in those mistakes ;-) Happy to See That you are back.
Greetings from Germany.

Attilio. You have changed my thought pattern for my photography. I am very grateful. Very special tutorial Attilio and extremely well presented. Thank you.
Thanks 🙏
Yes I needed this I am excited about land scraping photography
It’s great to see you back with your inspiring videos Attilio, yes I’ve made all 5 mistakes👀
You are one of us! :-)
Glad you're back! I always enjoy your videos!!
Thanks 🙏
After listening to your video, I am sure I can bring home decent photos. Thanks, Attilio.
Awesome 👍
The silhouette time lapse was very nice. Great advice thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank-you for making this video. Very beautifully made. The comments and recommendations are definately quite helpful! :)
Yep did the wide angle lens mistake. Fortunatelly I did not paid that much for it. Love your images specially the one of the tree with yellow flowers in the middle of the lake.

Thanks!
Thanks for sharing, the information and input are always beneficial.
So glad you’re back sharing your skills of landscape photography.
Thanks 🙏
I cannot agree more on your remark to buy a good tripod, I bought one in the early seventies ( for the first and only time I won some money in a photo competition) and almost 50 years later I still use it.
best purchase...once and forever!
Good Points, The problem today is Speed seems to be the No.1 topic when it comes to todays Cameras.I think the Tri pod helps us to slow down too. Makes us think a little more before we click the shutter. We are not out there to shoot 20 FPS. Spray & prey as they say. Look, listen, Enjoy. That's all a part of the process.
Slow your shutter speed! :-)
@@AttilioRuffo Starting to do this more Lately. Love the EFFECT

Thank you, Attilio, for another helpful, inspiring and charming (both you and your photographs) video. I am waiting for your next new one. Greetings from Guatemala where nature is amazing.
Thanks a lot dear Greta!
Very true when you mention the lens and how easy it is to fall for the widest and best lens in the market. I still shoot with an old NIKKOR 28-70 2.8D and very happy with it :-)

I need to practice landscape photography using my tripod , now I have a good backpack .
Very interesting tips to refresh our routine 😉🙏

Uh oh, think I made all the mistakes you mentioned... 🤣
Okay, let’s start with using a tripod! Thanks for the video, it is very helpful!
Your photos are so stunning beautiful, I have no words for it~ 🙏💕
ThankYou 🙏
Going to Point Betsie to photograph. Every time I go there I see many new thinks. Lake Michigan area has much to offer and a nice ride to get there. Thank you. I like a slower pace I'm nearly 70.
Slower is better!

Good advice to keep in mind! As a travel writer I end up taking dozens of quick shots on the fly due to time and am usually not happy with most of them. I've made a habit of getting up very early so I have time for some quality sunrise photos on my press trips. I have also found joy in exploring new towns at night for interesting photo options.
👍
Well said. The greatist mistake i often do is to take not enough time. But we are still learning :))
I know... :-)
Very nice advice. And a lot to take in. Will try them and see the difference it makes to my photographs. I have been making all the mistakes!
Attilio, how good you are back.
Thanks 🙏
Great tips! Unfortunately I'm guilty of most of these but this is a good refresher! Keep the videos coming!
Thanks mate!
I'm very thankful for your information as this has assisted me to become better and observant to my compositions.
Thanks 🙏
Thank you from Ukraine! Your videos inspire me to make good landscape pictures.)
Awesome! Thank you!
Very guilty of taking too many pictures. Thanks for reminding me to be patient.
😍
I totally agree your #5 advice. But I have yet to learn to remove unnecessary sceen out from my frame. Thanks.
we will talk more about this!
Great tips Attilio... especially about using the 'lenses you have'... and the tripod... errr I've made 3 mistakes already and not sure how I'm gonna sneak another one into the house!

@@AttilioRuffo you are the reason I bought the 20 mm. Your teaching is the reason I'm good at long exposures now.
Great to see you again, Thank you for continuing to teach me to be a better photographer.
Thanks mate!
So glad you are back!
🙏
Love the tips.
Thanks for sharing that with us all.
All the best from Scotland for 2021.
Thanks
🙏🙏🙏
Hola, been there and done that (all the mistakes you mentioned including buying more stuff)
Thanks for the reminders
And as always, the music is just fantastic!
Bravo
Thanks and stay safe
Thanks mate!
Great photos & glad to see you back!!!
Thank you!
Glad you’re back.
🙏🙏🙏
Great tips Attilio, all i have are three lens ranging from 16-35 and 70-300 but my go to and favourite is my 24-70 for some reason all my best shots are taken with this lens and yes everything i do is on a tripod
Great video and it's even better to see you back
Thank You!
Love your pics, super silky
Great to see you back making videos 👍

Interesting point on tripods...not so much for the camera shake, but simply that it slows you down and you can fine-tune and perfect the shot! As for me... I find I mostly shoot at 18 on my 18-35 (full frame)... consciously trying to break out of that and go longer when using that lens. That said, would love something that goes to 16 or 14mm 😎
Precious tips, I will never hold my camera with my hands again ( for landscaping photography of course✅).
😂
I only lack for punctuality! The rest i got it covered it! :) nice video Attilio! Cheers!
😍
Beautiful photos as usual. I do most of my photography with my cellphone. I have a couple of tripods that I use with that. Though I have to admit most of the time I use those tripods for night mode exposures, only occasionally using them for landscape photos.
I do use a tripod with my Canon DSLR.
thanks mate!
Normal service resumed. Great advice as usual.
😍
Really great that you are back Attilio...a very motivating video. The importance of taking the time needed is a reminder I so needed! Thank you!
thank you Juliet!
this was a very nice video. i could feel the connection we all share as landscape photographers
Thanks!
