LandscapeLandscape photography is used to capture as much as you can see with a single lens. It is usually used when capturing an open space such as nature or a man-made building or something. When looking at a landscape picture there is usually something being focused on and then a lot of space around it to fill in the blank space. Landscape photography is useful because you can fit as much as you like into the camera image by how much you zoom in or out.
