A study from MIT finds that landscape photographs are less memorable....
We have some good friends who travel extensively and he is a very good photographer. He loves architecture and scenery and has always taken photos of them. A few years ago he told me to be sure to take photos of people. He never did and now he really regrets it. He has all these wonderful memories but can't remember what the people looked like. He said often he would set of his camera and wait minutes for all the people to move out of the shot.

Yep, that used to be me too less than a year ago.

This is also often me when taking pictures of buildings. Yet buildings house people. When is it the best picture? Sometimes with people, sometimes not. An interesting dilemma.
Reply to this While portraits can be more memorable because of that magical moment captured, landscapes or any other photo can be equally memorable if captured with some dramatic element. Hmm... not sure if I totally agree about portraits.
