Photography and Photoshop tips. Thursday, February 14, 2008. Composition and lighting are an important aspect of photography, though I can never decide what is more important. Too much light and our shot becomes too bright and suffers from harsh shadows, too little and we have to resort to long exposures (though this is not necessarily a bad thing, in terms of landscape photography). Take this shot for example. Wikipedia defines composition as the plan. Ontributes to a response. Next is an example of one...

Photography and Photoshop tips. Tuesday, June 3, 2008. Well I hadn't posted for a while because tutorials are a lot of work and I had enrolled fulltime in the Graduate Certificate of Photomedia at Edith Cown University, as well as still working part time. It was good having access to a studio and lighting equipment, I was able to learn a lot more about studio lighting and off camera lighting. And a flash movie trailer to go with the poster here http:/ atre.deviantart.com/art/Hard-Rain-86459412.

Photography and Photoshop tips. Tuesday, June 24, 2008. I avoided making a tutorial about this area because I am not really into the technics of studio lighting, usually I just set up the lights and do whatever, and don't even use a light meter. But I am still guided by the basic studio lighting set ups, this website. Gives a good summary of basic studio lighting techniques. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I created this blog as a learning process for myself and others. All images are my own unless other...

Photography and Photoshop tips. Tuesday, September 2, 2008. I had a post a while back for talented photographers from flickr, but my eye has been on these young photographers for a while, they are very talented and still in their teens! Its a little disheartening really to us.older.photographers ;). Anyway here is a list of photographers to watch, 18 and younger (in no particular order). A 17 yr old Canadian boy who impressed me long ago with his fashion portraits, he raises the bar of what fashion portr...

Photography and Photoshop tips. Thursday, March 20, 2008. Impressions of the d300. Yes I bit the bullet and bought a d300. It was $1995 on ebay, how could I resist that? My main reason was I have been dabbling more in portraiture these days and I have to manually focus everything, which is a pain. I wanted a camera that could focus better. Though I have only had the camera a few days and not had much time to play with it, I have taken a couple of test shots with it that I will upload. Iso1600 f1.8 1/5.

Photography and Photoshop tips. Monday, February 4, 2008. Tip 11: Landscape Retouching (beg/int). Landscapes aren't particularly hard to Photoshop, as really there is minimal work to be done, unlike portraiture. Well it depends if you are creating an image from a number of pictures, but I dont do this because it seems kind of deceitful to the viewer. Step one: open your image, I took this one earlier tonight. Very basic really. You may want to tweak the colours a little, maybe add a vignetting layer ...

Photography and Photoshop tips. Saturday, November 10, 2007. A Guide to Successful Landscape Photography. Following is a guide of mostly common sense things that I have found useful while out taking photos. Of course I often don't follow my own tips, and that is why I always get bitten by bugs. 1 Stay alert and aware. 3 Take the right gear. 4 Keep an eye on the weath. 5 Choose your time for going out shooting. Remember some basic rules of composition and take your time to look around and find something s...

Photography and Photoshop tips. Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Smoothing skin - intermediate. Here is the link to the stock image http:/ fetishfaerie-stock.deviantart.com/art/Wrapped-in-Lace-I-107514794. Step 1: First I cropped the veil slightly off the original. Then duplicate the background and use the clone stamp tool to remove minor blemishes/pimples/dots as below. Step 6: Finally look at the image carefully. Walk away and come back if you can. Ask a friend. Whats wrong with the image? In my opinion the s...
