Outcomes	Choose settings for sharp, well-exposed landscapes on a camera or phone, including aperture, shutter speed, ISO and exposure compensation Read the histogram to protect a bright sky, and bracket or use HDR when one frame can't hold the scene Place your focus point so a landscape is sharp from the nearest rock to the far hills, and find the cause of a soft photo Use golden hour, blue hour, overcast light, mist, changing weather and the seasons Plan a shoot with sunrise and sunset times and directions, a weather forecast, tide tables and a one-page shot planner Compose with foreground detail, leading lines, the rule of thirds, layers, scale and simplicity Photograph the coast, hills, woodland, waterfalls, villages and farmland, and take a first night sky photo Follow the Countryside Code and the access rules in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and respect people's privacy Stay safe on hills and the coast, and know how to call 999 for Mountain Rescue or the Coastguard Edit, share and print your landscapes, and present a final set of 12
