This shots comes from my recent Patagonia workshop. It's a three images stitched pano taken in Torres del Paine, Patagonia, Chile. For a free PDF with all the awesome details about my upcoming Patagonia Workshop in April 6-16th, 2015 co-lead with Mark Metternich please go to: http://ift.tt/1trSF9V This image I processed with Nik and Topaz plugins. I also used the Luminosity Masking technique here. All these techniques (and plugins) will be covered during our workshop. Plus, Mark will teach you some amazing PS techniques not many know about. We also offer Sing-Ray 10% discount to those that sign up for our workshop, and free post-processing videos.
Landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including the physical elements of landforms such as (ice-capped) mountains, hills, water bodies such as rivers, lakes, ponds and the sea, living elements of land cover including indigenous vegetation, human elements including different forms of land use, buildings and structures, and transitory elements such as lighting and weather conditions.
Combining both their physical origins and the cultural overlay of human presence, often created over millennia, landscapes reflect the living synthesis of people and place vital to local and national identity. Landscapes, their character and quality, help define the self-image of a region, its sense of place that differentiates it from other regions. It is the dynamic backdrop to people’s lives.
The Earth has a vast range of landscapes including the icy landscapes of polar regions, mountainous landscapes, vast arid desert landscapes, islands and coastal landscapes, densely forested or wooded landscapes including past boreal forests and tropical rainforests, and agricultural landscapes of temperate and tropical regions.
Landscape may be further reviewed under the following specific categories: landscape art, cultural landscape, landscape ecology, landscape planning, landscape assessment and landscape design. The activity that modifies the visible features of an area of land is named Landscaping.
