If you’re shooting into the light, then you’re going to encounter lens flare at some time or another. This happens when you’re looking at the sun, or even just a single light source, such as a flashlight. Often lens flare is undesired, and it can be removed with a simple trick, but for the purpose [...]

Sunset photography is a bit of a funny one really, it’s harder than it looks, but is often one of the first things that beginner’s like to try. More often than not though, the exposure sucks, and the post processing needs a lot of work. There’s more to it than this though, so lets get [...]

I don’t know about you, but I make this day 7 of the 30 Day Photography Challenge (which you can absolutely follow on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest). Today’s task is to take on silhouettes. Silhouettes are often the result of a photo gone wrong when you first start learning exposure, and for that reason alone, many people don’t tend to go back to [...]

The last self portrait tutorial I wrote went down a treat, so I thought I’d try my hand at another one. This is a little bit more difficult though, so any of you out there who said ‘yeah that’s easssssy’, this one might take you a little longer. Before I get started, I’d like to [...]

My my, it’s Day 6 of the 30 Day Photography Challenge already. Today’s task is to tackle the fine art of low-angle photography. In direct contrast to yesterday’s post on high-angle photography, we’re going to talk about the differences between the two, and how you can use low-angles to improve your photography. The whole point of these two [...]

No real need to go into too much detail about what it exactly it is, it’s fairly self explanatory; it’s a photo taken from a higher angle than you would typically [...]

Today is Day 4 of the 30 Day Photography Challenge, and today’s challenge is to take a photo using texture. Now, when I talk about texture, I’m not talking about a smooth feeling, I’m talking about rough. You could use a smooth form, and lots of objects to create an interesting texture, but for now, lets [...]

Hi all, I’m just writing this today, because I wanted to personally invite you all to join the ExpertPhotography Pinterest group board, where only the best is good enough. Now, I’ve been rattling on before about how I’m enjoying Pinterest, and how you should get involved too, but I had an idea last night that [...]

It’s now Day 3 in my 30 Day Photography Challenge, and today’s challenge is to tackle the black & white photos. This isn’t my first time that I’ve covered black and white, and you can read about it here, and here. I suggest that you should, but for the sake of this article, I’m going to [...]

It’s now Day 2 in my 30 Day Photography Challenge, and today’s challenge is to tackle the rule of thirds. This is a great rule, and pretty much the first rule that photographers learn when it comes to composition. Here’s my full article on the Rule of Thirds. You should read the full article, but I’m going [...]
