How can travelers take better landscape photos?
The most types of photography taken by travelers are landscapes! Simply because we travel to see that grand waterfall, nice desert hot sands, clear cost beach, green forest or blue sky...etc.
Landscapes are hard to capture, because they are wide and you see large view by your eyes, your brain can focus on the most beautiful elements – and Therein lies the beauty of the human mind!  But your camera doesn’t!  
In this article, we will focus on the most important things you should do to take better landscapes as following:
1- Take your time:  when you visit new places you may notes interesting things at once, but to take good photos you should spend more time to look for the best angles, good lighting situation, where the shadow falls and what are the most beautiful things in that escape.
2- Light: light is an important element in the composition of the picture, it gives a sense to the image, light tells the viewer whether the time sunset, sunrise, mid-day or whatever.
3- What the picture say? A picture may worth 1000 words! Decide what you want to tell the viewer? Do you want to feel lonely and isolated in a dark forest? Or strongly feel the heat in the desert? This is the style of your image, pick up the ideal time and kits to make your story, such as mid-day to photograph the mirage in the desert to let the viewer feel the hot.
4- Specific component: landscapes have many elements, this could distract the viewer, to avoid this thing, focus on a specific element, for example the movement of the waterfall or path in forest, shade on canyon and so on.  
5- Kits: choose the right camera kit to add some affects to your photos like filters and wide-angle lenses.
