Why your photographs don't look sharp

Wildlife and Adventure Photography ·

2025/12/18

Send us a text Perfectly exposed images can appear to be soft or out of focus. There are two contributing factors that play a part in this: How our eyes and brain perceive sharpness The role of contrast in the image. It’s important to remember that RAW files are not photographs. And that the JPG we see on the back of the camera has already gone through a process that includes sharpening. In this podcast, I’ll talk through these processes and the importance of post-processing RAW images. It's ...

Do you need expensive camera gear to take great photos?

Wildlife and Adventure Photography ·

2025/12/04

Send us a text One of my pet hates is people coming up to me and saying something along the lines of “that’s a great picture, you must have a really good camera”. To me, it’s a little like someone going up to Shakespeare and saying, “That was a great play, you must have a really good quill”! Cameras are tools, and the fact is that if you are taking boring pictures now and you buy an expensive camera without changing anything else, you will still take boring pictures. In this podcast, I’ll tak...

Why you should become an urban wildlife photographer

Wildlife and Adventure Photography ·

2025/10/30

Send us a text A major part of a successful wildlife photography experience is preparation. Doing the right preparation can make the difference between having a great experience and a frustrating one. The problem is that most of us do not have access to wildlife every day, or do we? Getting to know your own area and the wildlife in it can give you access to all the wildlife you need to become confident when you do travel for your big trip. Most of us have our eyes wide open when we visit a ne...

The future of wildlife photography, AI and ethics

Wildlife and Adventure Photography ·

2025/10/23

Send us a text AI has already had a big impact on digital photography, and you may be using it without realising it. If you're using a smartphone, AI is driving scene recognition, HDR and exposure, and modes. For DSLR and Mirrorless users, it may well be driving your tracking and autofocus. It is widely used in post-processing to enhance images through noise reduction and the removal of unwanted objects. So what are the considerations for photographers?

2025/08/14

Send us a text I used to use Circular Quay in Sydney quite regularly, but never noticed the little dolphins in the railing by the ferry terminal. The first part of photographing the “unseen” is to see it! And we covered that to some extent in the last podcast. If you’ve tried the exercises from the previous podcast, you may well have found that there are a lot of details in your everyday environment that you’ve previously overlooked. And, no doubt, some of them have a beauty all of their own....
