When you see professional photographs in slick magazine advertisements, the subject and the scene always look perfect. In most cases, the reason is the photographer works closely with a talented art director, and together they plan the image well in advance. The art director often selects the model’s clothes, as well as the location and/or studio setting. Amateur photographers can take much better photographs by learning to be their own art directors. That means planning photos ahead of time – before you pick up a camera – as well as training your eyes to recognize visual “mistakes” and eliminating them before you squeeze the shutter release. |

 Focus stacking with the Leaf AFi and Helicon Focus
These new tools at our disposal allow us to spend more time taking pictures and leaving the wizardry for the software. There are mathematicians with many more degrees than I have, computing the perfect algorithms to replace tasks that would have taken forever before the digital revolution hit photography.
One of the biggest challenges facing photographers shooting with digital cameras is to learn to the change the way we think. We would look at our subject and instinctively know what could be photographed, what would be sharp, what would be beyond the depth of field and what highlights or shadows would likely be lost. Today’s equipment, combined with new software, allows photographers to accomplish what was seen as virtually impossible just a few years ago. |

By Bart Heirweg As a nature photographer the day often starts with the question: where do I begin? There are so many photographic opportunities and it is not always easy to choose the right object at the right moment.

With the right preparation you'll easily get one final colourful image, due to these bright creatures and the colourful flowers they feed on. While this seems an ideal subject for nature photography, yet many starting photographers find photographing butterflies quite challenging. These little winged creatures can be very active and in that way don't keep still long enough to take the right shots. But with the following list of tips and the right amount of patience, you'll see that photographing butterflies is a very rewarding photographic activity. |

By Fabio Braghi Photographers as well as artists know how competitive the visual arts field can be. In any given market all around the country, a quick browse in the Yellow Pages under "Photography" will show hundreds or even thousands of listings. What makes a successful photographer different from someone struggling to stay afloat is a mix of skilled marketing, talent and the ability to offer products that are unique and better then the competition. As consumers are becoming more sophisticated in their demand for long lasting, brilliant prints with a different look compared to regular photo paper, canvas is one of the fastest growing media. |

I am still an active shooter so I won't use my real name in this article. I have photographed around the world and possibly in your backyard. I have shot film and digital, small, medium and large format. I have had the cops called on me, yelled at, spit on and you don't want to know what else. You do what you have to do to get the shot. A wise man once told me that it is easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission. |
