Who says you need to have a sky in every landscape... (clue: its not me!)

This is an old favourite but now the challenge is to go looking for the new ideas...

Some days you need to forget about the numbers and learn to "feel" the image.

It might be black and white but it is not going to bite you... be bold with it!

House keeping is important... particularly in photography.

Look beyond the obvious, in the capture and in Photoshop.

Use a telephoto lens to get close to the action... it sure beats cropping images in the computer later!

Adding a new sky to an image is not as difficult as you might think...

Telling a story usually means putting away the telephoto and reaching for a wider lens...

The trees are where the story is in this photo... but we need to encourage the eyes to go there.

Digging into dark corners to find the story!

Slowing down can often create better image quality!

Its all about geometry... looking straight never looked so natural!

Sometimes all you need to do to make a photograph great is remove a distraction or two... this photo is a classic example!

Every photographer needs to understand that our eyes always gravitate to the brightest part of a picture, and will linger there like a moth circling a... Chinese lantern.

As image doctor Anthony McKee explains, some images have more impact in black-and-white.
