The other point of the exposure triangle being ISO which I will talk about next week. This Basics of Photography 3 part series is designed to get you […]
Ive had a few people sign up to my blog recently who are total beginners and have asked for me to do some blog posts about the basics of photography. I think this is a really good idea as its great for me to refresh myself with the basics too. Sometimes I get so caught […]
You may have seen on Instagram or Facebook or my last blog post that I went out to photograph the Milky Way last week. If you missed it you can read about it here. I had a few people ask how much editing went into the shot so I thought I would do a little […]
