It’s always a great shock when you see the actual size of a lens aperture. The stops between aperture sizes can be dramatic in actuality, but at times, they don’t look very dramatic at all.

Improve Your Photography by Changing Position
One of the toughest things to change in photography is position. For some reason, the human mind likes to stay put when it makes a decision. As much as we think we change, we stay the same more often then not. While that’s fine in many situations, when it comes to photography, that’s not the […]

Question: I’ve been looking all over for this answer. I’ve seen many videos out there that talk about what’s known as “blinkies” for Canon cameras.

Many of you have never heard of “Hyperfocal Distance” before because it’s a step beyond regular camera focus and depth of field, but it’s actually quite an important […]
Where to Focus When Taking Landscape Photos
If you’re interested in taking landscape photos, you probably already know that these photos should be sharp from front to back. Shallow depths of field and creative blur is best left to artistic, more close up photography. When it comes to landscape, the viewer wants to, and expects to see the blade of grass that’s […]
Shutter Priority: How to Take Smooth Water Photos
I’m sure you’ve seen many of these types of photos; very smooth waterfalls, rivers, waves on lakes or oceans. Almost like silk. Any ripple or upset in the water has been completely smoothed out and soothed by the time that lapses from when the shutter inside of a camera opens until the time it closes. […]
How to Take the BEST Street Photography
