Nature

Nature photography is often regarded as a wide range of photography taken outdoors and devoted to displaying natural elements such as landscapes, wildlife, plants, and close-ups of natural scenes and textures. I don’t profess to be an expert Nature Photographer, but it is difficult to go out into the countryside and not capture some of the world around us whether that be flowers, animals or trees etc.
