A Guest Post on Scouting for locations by Kyle Miller from Photography Tips I remember driving around for hours on end through urban and industrial landscapes and to remote areas of the countryside that even the local farmers had forgotten about, all in search of prime and unique location photography spots. In the end I [...]
Congratulations. You have finally decided to make that big trip on your bucket list. It is natural to get excited in planning the details of the trip from booking the tickets to arranging for tours, excursions, special sites you want to see, hotels, transportation… the list can be exhausting. The one important thing that you, [...]
By Joseph Eckert A few months ago, DPS published an article I wrote entitled “How to See in Black and White.” That article had a small bonus section at the end, in which I talked about how useful HDR can be to the monochrome photographer – a fact that is initially somewhat counterintuitive, since HDR [...]
It’s that time of year again – the time when most of us photographers find friends, family, and co-workers asking us what photo related gifts we’d like to receive. As much as we’d love to say, “Oh I wouldn’t mind a EOS-1D X or a Nikon D700,” the cold, hard reality is if we don’t [...]

It also comes with a metal hoop attached to a standard bolt [...]
A Guest post by Andrew S Gibson – author of the new eBook – Square. Perhaps one of the unintended consequences of digital photography is that it has opened up areas of photography that were previously limited to people that had certain equipment. The square format is a good example – before digital you really [...]
A Guest Post by Stephen Trainor Whatever you have planned for this weekend, cancel it now. Saturday Dec 10 2011 sees the last total eclipse of the moon until April 2014 – the last chance to photograph one of nature’s most attractive natural phenomena in over two years. In this article, we’ll take a brief [...]

As a true photography geek (or a professional photographer) you probably never part with your camera and take many photos per day. Obviously, there are good and bad shots in your reserve. So what do you do with them? [...]
