How to Find Landscape Photography Opportunities Where You Live
If you are a keen landscape photographer one of your main challenges will be how to locate places that will provide excellent opportunities to create stand out photographs. Your first port of call will probably be the work of other photographers in your area. You can see their work at exhibitions or at photography clubs or via their personal websites or blogs.
Another way to view photographer's work of your area is to browse social networking sites such as Flickr. Flickr gives you the ability to search for photographs across the millions that are stored in its database. If you search by town name or county you will end up with a filtered list of photographs that have been taken in your area. Flickr encourages tagging of photographs with keywords, so as long as the contributor has tagged their photograph with the relevant place name it will appear in the search results.
