Dear Stay Focussed reader!
Welcome to the digital-photography-tips.net monthly ezine Stay Focussed.
Thanks to everyone for your patience. As you will know I have recently moved country, and I thought it would be a simple thing to get connected to the internet again. How wrong was I!
Anyway, all is good now and I'm not expecting any more hiccups!
In this newsletter:
- Black and White photography tips
- A great photography eBook
- New additions to the site
Photo Tips #3 -
Black and White photography
But what makes a really good black and white picture?
Have a look at the photo here. It's one I took when I was in Prague, and it demonstrates some of the tips below:
- First, look for a subject that has a strong, simple composition.
- Take the photo in colour, then convert to black and white using software.
- Once you have converted the image to black and white, boost the contrast (your software will definitely have a contrast control in one of its menus).
eBook
I've seen a lot of photography ebooks. And they're not all great.I've also been on sites where you can get a 'free' course in photography, and then all they do is send you lots and lots of annoying emails.
Recently though I was contacted by a photographer with a really great eBook worthy of consideration.
Amy's eBook is easy to read, and is chock full of useful photography tips. She has also contributed some articles to digital-photography-tips.net.
If you are in the market for some high quality photography tips and tricks, have a browse here.
