Out of curiosity why did you leave the branch in the frame? I would like it more without it. Nice image otherwise and a spectacular sunrise.

Really beitiful, sky colour to take breath away

excellent

Not sure about it myself - think I am having a landscape photographer identity crysis It was out of frustration, mostly because it's so hard to create something original in this field.. Even the best most acknowledged photographers keep repeating the same formula to build up a landscape photo. Of course it's fantastic to see beautiful natural landscapes, but can't it be possible to make some sort of twist to them?

I think it is possible to push the boundaries in landscape photography, you can take Marc Adamus for example. I mean he isn't doing anything mind blowingly original but he does consistently create stunning images that are not what you would see every day. This is mostly do to being in the right place at the right time and when you travel and spend as much time in the wilderness as he does you are bond to continually make great images.

As far as more experimental work goes that is something that is a little more difficult to do in landscape photography. Although here is a very good example of a creative landscape with a twist that I believe worked out very well [link] Mind you this is just my opinion and it is obvious that not everyone likes this sort of image especially not the masses. This is the kind of rejection that can keep some landscape photographers from trying to do something drastically different from the norm and maybe this is why there are fewer images that push the boundaries.

I agree, Marc Adamus takes some of the most breathatking photos, and he really manages to find the perfect time and perfect spot for that unique photo. All his photos stand out as exceptional work. But still, looking at his compositions, they don't differ from the typical landscape photo. There is that typical S curve, foreground-middleground-background, etc., approach. I would like to see him try something like what you sent a link to, which was certainly interesting.

There is a Norwegian nature photographer who made me think a little. He loves going against the rules in more absurd ways, like doing macro photography with wide angle lens, or shooting a wild bear out of focus, or just capturing the rear of a deer. It introduces a sense of humour, while the pictures are still very beautiful to look at.

Of course, I love the typical idea of landscape photography, by just taking a photo of a beautiful scene from my perspective, as it comes with appreciation for nature as well. It's just that it would be fun to try something new sometimes, but honestly I can't think of any ideas

One photo I really liked is [link] . It plays with my mind alot, as I couldn't really figure out if this was a small foreground close-up, or a insanely huge landscape.
