There are plenty of things that go into being successful in landscape photography. You might think of gear because of how technical it is or the connections to others in the profession whether art or influencers. However, I believe that the most important thing is persistence across everything you do. It is the pursuit of perfection (not necessarily always achieving it though) across various parts of landscape photography that makes you successful.
When practicing photography it isn’t always easy to compose and capture great images that are uniquely yours. Of course you will need good light and interesting subjects, but this isn’t the whole story.
It is important to fail. We all have taken bad images before. Everybody has done something cringe-worthy in their processing one time or another. Nobody has a perfect portfolio of images that they love from years prior.
