Free tips and tutorials for better photographs.

I recently started writing a new page of simple tips for new photographers to use, in the move to make their images stronger and more impressive. (correction: I've stopped posting that material in lieu of my lack of time to dedicate to writing and needing to spend more time building a portfolio and create more business opportunities) 

So far, I've got 3 such tips and included assignments. In most cases, people can take immediate action with the mini assignment and get good results the very same day. My hope is that new photographers will find value in these little assignments with a minimal investment in equipment. I hope that they will see that creating beautiful images is not an impossibility.

To help them to make better images, I'm touching on subjects like using just a minimal camera kit, making small changes to their camera settings, the importance of editing while you shoot, keeping a tripod; even a small one, on hand at all times and more.

I've included a comment box on the page so people can respond with their experiences and hopefully make suggestions to improve the page to the benefit of all visitors.

I look forward to adding new content every week this year. Please stop by to see how these tips can help in the improvement of your photography.
