How Can I Stop Lens Flares?
Question: It seems like I’m getting a lot of lens flares in both my photography and video lately. I don’t know why this is happening. For the most part, it’s because of the sun, but I’m finding that it’s also because of things the sun is reflecting off of, such as cars, windows and other […]
Photography Composition Ideas For Dark Night Scenes
I’ve been thinking lately about how I shoot at night and I figured it would be a good idea to share some of those thoughts here for you. Night photography isn’t the easiest of all types of photography and if you can learn a few tried and true methods for obtaining the best results, you’ll […]
My Sigma 50-500mm Lens
Comment from a reader: This photo might not seem like much, but I was absolutely amazed with it. I took this photo from Mount Loretto, a beach on Staten Island. Mount Loretto is directly across a body of water separating Staten Island from New Jersey. The distance is about 8 miles. Years ago, a friend […]
How to Set the Self Timer On Your Canon Rebel DSLR Camera
Camera self timers are great. I was recently part of a group photo where someone was trying to set up her smart phone to take a picture of all of us. It was hilarious watching her attempt to balance the phone on a chair so it was accurately aimed at the group and then run […]

I actually experienced this recently, but luckily, the cause of the spot was a small splash of dirty water that flung itself onto my camera lens. I only took three or four photos with the water […]
How Can I Zoom In & Out With Image Review on Canon Rebel T7i (800D)?
Question: After I capture a scene with my Canon Rebel T7i (800D), I can see the image on my Live View for a few seconds afterwards. To view the image for a longer period of time, I push the small Play button that’s on the lower right portion of the back of the camera. I […]
Changing Scene Brightness in Long Exposure Night Photography
I think long exposure night photography is one of the most interesting types of photography out there. If you think about it, when you look at a photo that’s been captured over five seconds, fifteen seconds, thirty seconds or longer, you’re essentially looking at a span of time that’s been compressed into a split second. […]
Photography Tip: Resetting Your Camera After a Photo Shoot
Let me ask you a question. Have you ever picked up your camera after not using it for a while and started taking photos with it? After you took those photos (or in the middle of taking them), did you smack your head in the realization that a few of your settings were off? Not […]
Why I Love Square Photographs
There’s something about square photographs that warms the cockles of my heart. I’m not sure what it is. Perhaps it’s because I’ve been seeing landscape oriented photos for most of my life and I’m getting tired of them or maybe it’s because square photos just seem more artistic. I’m not sure. Whatever it is, I […]
