Send us a textAs it's still early in 2025, I thought that it would be a good idea to revisit the basics. I sometimes go down a particular rabbit hole myself (photographically speaking) and, in so doing, forget something basic but useful. So, I think it's a good idea to periodically go over the basics again.I've cheated slightly in that I'm talking through a free PDF that I offer on my website; "10 simple steps to improve your photography today".

Send us a textWelcome to the 150th episode of the podcast. I was inspired at 3.00 am to talk about when a photograph isn't a photograph; when it becomes something more. I've spoken about photojournalism and that type of photography has the power to influence global events. For most of us, that will not be a consideration, but being able to take good photographs, especially portraits, can have a positive impact on us, and people we haven't met yet. People come ...

Modes and the Exposure Triangle - Revisited

Send us a textModes and the exposure triangle revisited:I spoke about this subject some time ago and I had a very positive reaction to it. So, I thought it was worth a revisit!If you don’t understand the exposure triangle, your results will be limited and it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to shoot the kind of photographs you would like to. I say this with some conviction as one of the most common questions I am asked is ‘How can I get a sharp subject and an out-of-focus background?’.Simply pu...

Send us a textHave you ever tried street photography?If you haven't, but you're thinking about it, now is a good time to start.The primary reason for this is the frequent use of smartphones in the street. I'm sure you've had to avoid a few "phone zombies" in your time, and this makes it very easy to discretely take street photographs. People will just assume that you're on your phone.So what do you need to think about before you get started? You're probably already carrying the ideal camera, ...

In macro photography, the subject is typically life-sized or larger.2. Depth of Field (DOF)Using a small aperture like f/16 or f/22 can help increase DOF and keep more of the subject in focus, but may require slower shutter speeds or higher ISO.If you’re not familiar with DoF, check out my course!3.

How to add meaning and impact to your photographs

Wildlife and Adventure Photography ·

2024/11/28

Send us a textThis podcast was inspired by another podcast that I listen to (“The rest is history”) where they spoke about Lee Miller. This, in turn, was prompted by the 2023 movie starring Kate Winslet.Lee Miller was largely forgotten until her biography came out in the 1980’s (she died in 1977). She had a privileged upbringing and, I think it’s fair to say, lacked any purpose in her life. This changed when the Second World War started, and she became a war photographer.If you google Lee Mil...
