The shot by Frank Winkler seems, to me, to be the classic “don’t do” of landscape. He has a leading line,the road, that leads you straight out of the frame on the mid right. This leaves 2/3rds of the photo to chance. That 2/3rds is probably the most interesting part of the entire scene.
Exactly.
The first thing I see is the white snow(?) in Frank Winkler’s photo. The road is secondary… it meanders out of the photo, the rock formations bring your eye back in, taking you on a round trip throughout the photo.
