I have always dipped in and out of photography but only started to focus on landscapes seriously just over two years ago, after becoming chronically depressed during lockdown. I've suffered with depression all of my life, and find photography an incredible therapy. Nothing beats being out in nature or in the middle of a woodland in the early morning. It really is food for the soul, and medicine for a troubled mind.
When it comes to choosing the right camera equipment for landscape photography, it obviously helps to have a good camera body and quality glass in front of it. The Nikon Z 6 certainly excels as a landscape camera, but technique is far more important, in my humble opinion.
