• the influence of worldview on how nature is depicted in images;
• empirical, aesthetic and critical take on nature and its representation;
• using the practical fundamentals of photography for the depiction of natural environments and natural objects;
• applying theory when in contact with nature;

• have an understanding of the distinction between the natural and the non-natural, and can describe this photographically;
• know the technical variations, possibilities and limitations of photographing in nature;
• perceive nature as a source of creative expression, a possibility and a resource;
• see the strengths in their and co-students' work and find ways to improve the work technically and compositionally;
• behave purposefully in nature.
