Best thing I have learnt from reading the blog is that it doesn’t matter your camera’s resolution as much as it matters the size of the digital sensor
please pick me
I really enjoyed the post on DIY beauty dishes! http://www.arenacreative.com/blog This is the beautiful part of photography – the ability to custom make simple tools using basic materials, and “Mickey-Mousing” it once in a while. It’s a common misconception that you need all pro gear to accomplish certain results. Sometimes you just need a little bit of ingenuity, time, and patience to produce great results on a next-to-nothing budget.

Sorry about the duplicate reply – I pasted in the wrong URL, in my first comment – you can delete that one.
The thing I’ve learnt that helped better shape my photography is how to color correct my photos in Photoshop!
lets do this!
too bad its only for usa residents
Hi there – just found your blog searching for business cards – would love to enter your giveaway. I enjoyed looking through your posts. I thought your advice on photographing toddlers was very good – don’t try to pose them because they won’t pose, give them something to play with instead.
be accurate mverno@roadrunner.com
Unfair… I mean, you live in Jordan, how come the competition is only for US citizens. :/

hey guys, anyone living in amman who would love to enter the competition, just leave your comment and in case you win ill arrange for it to get to you!
i don’t live in US but I learned many things on your great site. Too bad I can’t compete
I like you advice when photographing toddlers. Giving them a toy rather than trying to pose them is a great idea! My baby sis is big into photography and she has taught me a lot.
I learned about working more with photoshop. Thanks.
One of your articles really helped me overall with photograhpy….when you said “You also need to train yourself to disregard what your eyes tell you, and think in terms of your specific camera sensor and its capabilities, envisioning how light is falling on your scene, how its properties will change with time, whether that change would better serve your purposes if you waited a little longer or came back later, or if you can better recompose your shot to better accentuate your intentions”…that changed my whole perspective on shooting pics. There are many technical components but if you can get yourself into that mindset and train yourself to see the scene how the camera sees the scene…it will greatly improve your photos.
