A panoramic image has a wide format – its ratio width:height must be at least 2:1. This can be achieved by stitching images, or cropping an image. Landscape images celebrate the beauty of the natural environment, showcasing the spaces and scenery of the natural world. Images may include animals, people or manmade elements, provided the primary emphasis is on natural scenery. The image must look natural although elements can be composited to add to the story.

This Is a non-formalized genre of photography that features subjects in candid situations within public places such as streets, parks, beaches, malls, political conventions and other associated settings. Images can often be ironic or emotionally detached from subject matter, focusing instead on a particular context or detail. Framing and timing are key aspects of the craft, with the aim of creating images at a decisive or poignant moment. (APJA)
