Teleconverters can be useful for reaching distance subjects, but you do need to sharpen your technique when you use them.

How do you make a photo like this better... well you take another and another and another... then you start comparing them.

There is nothing wrong with shooting into the light, just so long as you don't get those spots in your eyes!

I am not in the business of selling lenses... but there are days when a standard 50mm lens will make life a lot easier for you.

One thing worth learning about food photography is that there are no hard and fast rules... just so long as the food looks tasty!

Getting movement into a subject that can otherwise be so static is a good thing...

The most important question I ask of myself of any photo is, "am I convinced by what I am looking at?"

Mobile phone cameras might not have wide angle lenses but that should not stop you capturing a wide scene...

Contrast is often better delivered locally rather than globally.

Do you really need this much tension in the morning... I leave the decision to you!

Welcome to the wonderful world of black and white photography.

Getting close to the subject might not have been easy... but why didn't you use the zoom?

Managing the bright areas in a photograph is important if you are going to get people looking into the darker areas.

Sometimes it's not what you include in a photograph that is important, it's what you leave out.

Showing one subject from two different angles always makes for an interesting photo. But what if you want the subject in the background in more focus?

Less colour and more contrast can help reduce a blue sky while revealing a great gum.
