Landscape Photography Schools
Landscape photography is a specialized subject that is typically taught by established landscape photographers. Schools and workshops that focus on the subject teach students about exposure, natural lighting, depth of field and other techniques that are important when framing a landscape. Schools with a landscape focus are limited, but many general photography programs cover landscapes as a part of the curriculum. Landscape-focused workshops are often held in scenic areas rather than classrooms.
