Landscape or Scene?

Landscape - scenic they're synonyms to me.
I use the term "landscape" much more often.

(Then there is the reference to image orientation.)

Considering the entire photographic process and his era, he produced amazing (to me) photos.

Attached was the scene in my topic "Impression -Last of the Summer" a couple of days ago. It was to be bullrushes in the mist, but the mist burnt off too fast.

I 'saved' your pic. It's going on my list to paint. Oh YES you can do it too!
Thanks for that compliment.

Here's me thinking that 'Landscape' was longer length top and bottom and 'Scene' was what you snapped with your phone.....silly me.
If you lower your ISO and shutter speed and put your camera on a tripod you may find that clarity and sharpness improves.....just saying
have fun

Call it what you like and do what pleases you. Follow the rules and your images will be like a million others. Rules are only guidelines to provide a starting point. Look at images from the old masters...they created their own style and that's what made them standout.

Isolating a subject in landscape photography can be tough. So much more in the scene can pull at the eye. Here's one example where I tried to isolate a waterfall. My eye still gets pulled around in the foreground. I should have opened my aperture more. In wildlife it's so much easier as the subject is Much Smaller than the scene.

Shooting landscapes it has been always customary to use a small lens opening so that everything from foreground to background is in focus. Using a larger aperture to blur the foreground is more selective focus than landscape photography.

and printed full frames. He also like to shoot
around f:22 to get max field of view.

Weston pretty much had to "crop" in camera as he contact printed (no enlarger), often 11x14" negatives!

And there is always Photoshop. You can pretty easily blur and oval area outside the immediate waterfall. It was a great idea and good attempt as is. But, yes, the framing foreground would be best blurred when shot or with PP.

Agreed but I was referring to when he
used his roll film camera. Cropping in the camera let him not have to print half of his neg.
