(3) Not focusing on prospects

"Foreground" is one of the most important things in landscape photography. With a proper foreground, it can enrich your photos, serve as a foil to the main character, or express more elements of the environment, so when you arrive at a site, be sure to consider what the foreground is before you start shooting.
