disagree  Andrei B: landscape = an area of land that is beautiful to look at or that has a particular type of appearance (various dictionaries) Do buildings fit into this definition?

Yeah, but I'm struggling to express this in English properly. Perhaps "original photo" vs. "reproduced photo"?

Notes to answerer
Asker: Taking a photo of the building(s), as opposed to taking a photo of a photo - seems straightforward enough. Thank you.

disagree  Andrei B: натурная съемка is a term to be translated into a precise English equivalent. There's no term as location photography// Never late to learn more; find precise equivalent in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panchatantra// I'm here not to teach you. Good luck!

  -> "precise" is a poor choice of modifier for "equivalent", I'm afraid; as for "there's no such term as", I'd hardly figure your definition of "there is such term as" so http://tinyurl.com/353brlt // Panchatantra is not even English. // Take care.
