20 of the Best Mountain Photos You Need To Check Out Today

Mountain photography is a wonderful art, but also extremely difficult. Instead of working with models or objects that you can manipulate and move around, you have to adapt yourself to the location you’re working with. This doesn’t need to be a disaster; all you need is time, patience, and an eye for framing.

We asked photographers to share photos of mighty mountains for our MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING Photo contest(Last date of contest 6 November). Till now we got more than 150+ entries…

Here are 20 of our favorites. These Mountain photographers have their own unique ways of capturing incredibly stunning scenes.

The things I have seen , the things I have done are pretty amazing . I can tell you tales about it , show you volume of pictures , speak on lengths about it but you wont understand . And its not your fault . Beautiful things are hard to understand and even more hard to earn. Unless you are there breathing in all what I had , you wont get it.
