A lot of photographers refrain from shooting during the Winter season and with the arrival of spring, photographic opportunities increase. There are many ways in which one can photograph the spring season - just the spring blossoms, spring flowers (wide, abstract and macro), the wildlife among the spring blossoms, bugs and other critters among the blossoms, spring landscapes, spring still life, aerial shots and many more. Here are some bright and cheerful photos captured during the spring season. The post Want To Beat Photographers’ Block?

One of the biggest traps in landscape photography is trying to include everything in a scene.  And while it can work, I would argue that it actually makes good landscape photographs a more difficult thing to achieve.  It's why I often err towards trying to get the best minimalist landscape photographs that I can. I find them more appealing in many situations, and I also find them quite difficult to achieve, but a hell of a lot of fun.  So let's take a look at what makes minimalist landscape photography challenging and how we can overcome those trials for better images.  The post Minimalist Landscape Photography: How to Say More With Less appeared first on Light Stalking.

The power that we have in Lightroom and many other modern apps is astonishing. To the point where we can take a relatively dull, average composition and turn it into something incredibly striking.

We are, however, in danger of over reliance on over editing our images and today I want to look at why when it comes to editing, less is often more.
