Vertical beat, transverse beat will achieve different effects, the use of that kind of shooting method can actually, but must consider the actual situation, sometimes if the cross shot will be photographed a lot of irrelevant things, then try the vertical shoot, and vice versa. Another consideration is to show the problem, for example, if you will print out the photo, or for the customer for commercial purposes, so you have to design a white, corresponding tailoring and so on.

(ii) Looking for prospects

The word "foreground" is very important to the students who learn photography, because beginners often overlook the prospect of looking for a picture that seems to be empty and seemingly always missing. In mountain photography, although not every photo can find a beautiful prospect, but if you can, please carefully pay attention to whether there is this "foreground" exists, often you can express your photos richer, engaging!

(iii) Use of the pilot line

In the mountains, sometimes can be found in many trails, railings, and even mountains and mountains between the connection, but also some of the guiding line of the subject. In the use of the Guide line, remember not to necessarily look for the actual line, there are try to change an angle, the line will appear!

You can find the guide line's composition everywhere!

(d) Use of comparative

There are many kinds of contrasting composition methods, such as color, size, distance and so on, we can use this kind of contrast composition method more when shooting mountains. There is also a very suitable for use in the mountains of the contrast is the sky/clouds of "moving" with the ground "static", the use of slow shutter + tripod record flow of clouds, with the ground quiet atmosphere!

(v) Use of the three-way

Of course, the three-point method, or the "Golden section" as the most common method of composition, in mountain photography how can it be less? Come to a scenic spot, may wish to consider the three-way composition, and then to find some special angle and scenery shooting, so that your portfolio can have a little more changes!

(vi) Film yourself!

The scenery is sometimes too stuffy, so hard to climb to the mountain, of course, to take their own photos! Of course, you can also let the reader have "experience their own" feeling Ah!
