Part of telling a story in landscape photography at times requires knowing the size of the landscape. In macro photography, we can for example place a dime by something and we all would know instantly the approximate size of the subject. Put a dime in a landscape though and you’ll need a metal detector to find it. So a common object we use as a scale reference are people. We can get a general idea from them the grandeur of the scene, we can understand distance and a feel for size. But even with this simple element, we can take it even further by manipulating scale.<\/p>\n
