Okay, here is a simple rule for the bright areas of your picture – keep them away from the edges – seriously!

There is magic hiding in this print... but you need to go back to the beginning and look carefully for it in the original file.

Sometimes the most important thing you can do as a photographer is to find your own unique vision.

One of the old rules of news photography was never to get backs in a photo... that's unless the person has a really interesting back!

One mistake many people make in the kitchen is to over-cook the greens... and that's what's happened in this photo!

Is this image underexposed, or has the photographer delved deep into her heart to tell a different story?

Managing contrast in a scene can help accentuate the important elements – like the anger in this wave.

If I was a sailor maybe I would love looking at the horizon on a slant every day!

Don't be scared to think square...

A photograph should be like a journey and you, the tour guide, need to make that journey interesting.

Some days it is not the motion of the ocean that can make you feel seasick; it's the colour of the ocean!

This is a good photo... and well worth the risk of frost bite!

Sometimes all you need to do is walk a few metres to make an element in the photograph really stand out.

The lips are one of the most expressive parts of the face and so it seems a shame to cover them up!

Practising with one light is a fantastic way of improving your photography... now all you need to do is give the model some direction!

It could have been anywhere... London, Berlin, Tokyo... but that EXIT sign in the background is hinting at a small venue.
