Hi folks, thought I would do a bit of a more in depth tutorial on my basic setup for landscape photography. This isn’t really aimed at experienced pros but more enthusiasts interested to know how I get my shots. All photographers have varying methods and this is by no means the only way to achieve good landscape photographs. I am a canon shooter and although I don’t plan on getting overly technical please be aware that other camera brands may have different knobs and dials! More stuff after the jump

Hi folks, thought I would post a Photography tutorial about using off camera flash, I have got a wedding photography post to do but have been meaning to do this for a while so thought I would get to it.

If you are one of these visitors, no review needed, you should just go and get one of these, I love mine!

Read MoreIt’s been pretty overcast today so not the most exciting in terms of light so today I created my own, in a non divinical sort of way. I’m posting 2 shots, a sort of before and after the addition of some directional light. As it’s autumn the fungi are starting to come out and these …
Read MoreI haven’t added many portrait examples so here’s one I was processing last night. The thing that struck me about this shot was the size of the girl’s eyes and how the catch lights …
Read More1. Location research.
Make sure you know where you are planning to shoot. Check maps for roads and/or footpaths. Also have an idea of where the sun will be (compasses are good for this). Some locations might be great for sunrises but poor for sunsets, and vice versa.
2. Weather.
It is always a good idea to check …
