Good lighting is always a factor when photographing landscapes. Sunset, sunrise, and overcast with blue skies are some of the best times to capture a great image. A calm atmosphere will allow stability in the photo and will also depict the feeling of calmness. You want to make the viewers want to be in your photograph! Make objects clean and sharp, and if there is water worth shooting, attempt to get an image when it is at its calmest and so a reflection will appear.
Keep up to date on weather announcements.
Fog, haze, mist and falling snow are all very beautiful meteorological events that can add to the appeal of your photo.
Use north and south camera to use sidelight to your advantage.
Capture interesting cloud formations.
Recognize the importance of color....color can depict a mood but more importantly it can draw attention. Bright colors are obviously more appealing than dull and thus red is most appealing. Sharp detail with lots of colors and even better, colors that work well with eachother and blend throughout, rather than drastic color changes that take away from one another.
Capture foreground details that will draw the viewer up and into the rest of the photograph. Places that look untouched by humans are very appealing and if you can capture a bit of the intersting wildlife that lives there, even better!
