Landscapes

Landscape photography, shot with iPhone or a Canon mirrorless camera, exhibits the environment we live in physically and contemplatively. Most of these landscapes are local. Some are easy to find and photograph while others must be glimpsed in their potential and then shot in a way that maximizes their character.
