You snapped tho picture because the scene was too good to miss. But in the print, the valley seemed to flatten out Details your eye observed oft in the distance had become so Infinitely small as to become Tirtually Invisible, and the picture gave little hint ot the valley's size or magnificence. But, if you had known that your vision is somewhat deceptive, an excellent picture of that valley could have been very easily taken. The only thing necessary was to atep back until the picture included a small portion of the hilltop with a tree, person, or some other object la the foreground. Oftentimes you «an naturally "frame" the distant portions of a scene between nearby trees, or Include a tree trunk and -•an overhanging branch at one side of the picture. And by including a person in the foreground, you provide sort of a measuring stick to gtve a general idoa ot the size and aoope of the landscape, and also aid an important element of depth, or third dimension.

The viewpoint should be carefully cbosea-- remembering that much that is extraneous can be eliminated or at least made unobtrusive by moving the camera to the right or left, up or down, or nearer or farther away. Lighting is as Important as composition. Very tew good landscape pictures are taken when the sun is directly overhead. The best, aa a rule, are taken in the late afternoon when long shadows help give interest and pictorial quality to outdoor scenes. Early morning-- particularly when it is misty or foggy--is also an ideal time for landscape shooting. And, don't overlook late summer and autumn pictures. They are excellent seasons for landscape piotures. You'll find, if you shoot thoughtfully and wisely, that good landscapes are comparatively simple to make, aad provide worthwhile additions to yai'r snapshot collection.
