Your site has helped me understand a bit more about exposure and shutter speed, etc, although I must admit that I have to refer back to that tutorial several times. For some reason, it just doesn't penetrate my brain. I do keep in trying though. I just submitted by first photo for critiquing. I think I'm ready. Also, the above article is awesome. I am actually going to do more of that "grainy" type of picture. I think that's very cool. Very dramatic! Again, thank you for having this wonderful web site....

I won't be throwing my camera though! Just a thought - the grainy black and white shot here is gorgeous, but I would stick to b&w - colour digital noise is just ugly (not grainy) in my experience I really enjoyed these ideas- good to keep in mind for uninspired days.

I onced used the panning technique by accident when i was playing with my Canon 5D; To me it was ART, even people around me could not understand what's nice about a blurred picture.. :p At least now I know it helps to stimulate the creative process.. Keep coming up with great post Darren! ;) Great list of techniques/tips here!

It's still here! It's a great article and has helped to refresh my creative approach. However, I must say that some of the pictures here are in truly excellent locations, and would probably make excellent pictures without the added creative element. So for me, I prefer the 'Go Grainy' and 'slow sync flash' ones. Shows how the creative element makes a ordinary photo into a special one.... Thanks for sharing and thanks for the inspiration (to get creative and to go to great locations!!) Hi all,
